Re: paint code for stripe on 84 z28

I believe the lower body colour used was Silver Metallic Code:15E - WA 8310
If somebody could verify that for me to be sure, that would be great.

I think that is talking about the exterior color of the car. not the gfx. I think 15 was the color of the silver cars.

btw, "Lower body" color does not refer to the gfx on camaros.

Re: paint code for stripe on 84 z28

I have a dark blue Z28, with silver gfx, that i ordered from the factory in 1983. Notice on my trim tag that:

27L Lower body
27U Upper body.


27 is color code for blue.
