Glove box on the bottom of the white label. BC/CC means BaseCote ClearCote and the # is after that. There may be an additional letter. IndigoBlue is BC/CC U 9792 for reference to what it looks like. Summit White was a common S-series white in the last years.

It's too blurry on my end but the last two numbers are definitely 24. The first one could be an 8 or 3 and the second a 5 or 6 but it does look like it says WA8624. Call up a Chevy dealership and give them your VIN if you want to be absolutely positive, they will give you the paint code from GM and the actual name of the color. That's how I found out mine is called Space Blue Metallic vs Superior Blue Metallic. GM likes to change the names of colors. :rolleyes: hehe. Good luck.

The paint code 8624 is Summit White from GM but cross-references to Olympic White from PPG. Ive heard the PPG is a tint bluer than the OEM color. So if you are repainting it entirely...no biggie. But if its a panel or 2, you will need to work on it to get it to match. Hope this helps =)

I have to ask...
My paint code is U381E, "I think" I cant find it in any color charts at my local paintshop. is it rare? Or are they not up to date?

Go to a Chevy dealor if you can find one in business. They'll find your code.
