You could allways go to a paint mixing body shop and get they will have a load of paint cards on a ring and they should be able to match your paint from that and it will have the code on it. As pinto says there will be loads it’s like Ford sunburst red me and my brother both had Xr 3i s only 11 months difference in build date and a total different shade of sunburst red
