VY Commodore

The VY Commodore (2002–2004) followed the VX. Below is every factory paint code we have recorded for the VY Commodore, with an approximate colour swatch so you can narrow down your car’s original shade before you buy paint.

VY Commodore paint codes

Swatches are approximate on-screen colours only. Screens vary, and decades of ageing, fading and repainting mean no photo or swatch will match a real car. Always match against your own paint code, or a hidden, unfaded area of the car, before buying paint.

Where to find the paint code on a VY Commodore

On a VY, the paint code is shown on the compliance plate. Check the plate and match the code to the list above.

• Many cars have been repainted, so the plate shows the original colour, which may not be the colour on the car today.
• If the plate is missing or unreadable, look for original paint in unexposed areas such as inside door shuts, under the parcel shelf or behind trim, and take a sample to a paint supplier for matching.
• If you are between two similar shades, compare against an original sample rather than relying on a screen.

Buying paint for your VY Commodore

Once you have your code, you have two practical options:

• Touch-up paint and spray cans for chips, scratches and small panels.
• Mixed paint by code or sample for panel and full resprays, from your local automotive paint supplier.
