If you are looking for a specific paint code, but aren't sure which exact one is correct for your car, look for a dealer sticker (most likely inside a door jamb) that has a code starting with either a U or a WA. Keep in mind that the 'Engineer Name' for the color may differ from the advertised name.

And here they are roughly grouped together by color:

Picture does not show up for me. Does it work for anyone else?

It works for me.

And for the life of me, I can't tell the difference between "Victory Red" and "Pull Me Over Red".

It's subtle, but Pull Me Over Red is brighter by a shade than Victory Red. I'm going to compile a side-by-side of the similar colors to post.

I replaced the Cyber Gray spoiler on my hatch with a red one I picked up at a used parts place. I have no idea if it's Victory or Pull Me Over

Did they look inside the spare tire well? Read that page I linked. ^ It explains that sometimes the code doesn't start with a 'WA', but sometimes a 'U'. Supposedly the car VIN number contains the paint code too, but in a different format that only Chevy knows.

The only way you're going to be able to figure out what color you have is by taking an educated guess at what year the car was that the part came off. In 2014, they replaced Victory Red with Pull Me Over Red. So if the part is from a pre-2014 car it is Victory. If it is from a 2014 or newer car, it is Pull Me Over.

Shame that the part was handed to me over a counter. No idea what year it came from

@ green dragon yes the first place i looked was the spare tire , also been over that site. the techs and service managers were surprised there was no code on the tag, they said some other codes were missing aswell , but when they ran the vin it gave them the colour which i already knew. but no code was listed they told me it could be because i had a brand new colour for 2016 . or maybe my car was one of the very first 2016's built how would i go about finding on the vin when the 2015's ended and the 2016's started

I think I made a mistake by not including the color palettes for the 2012-2016 Aveo. Since they are the same car, and all.

Here's my educated guess for Mosaic Black Metallic:

That color is listed on quite a few of Chevy's new 2016 lineup, and is the only metallic black I could find. Ironically, it is also listed for the 2016 Aveo. The name doesn't match (engineering name vs. marketing name), but I bet it is the correct color.

Hy bluejay? Is the black paint on your headlights the same as your Mosaic Black Metallic body paint? I've wondered for awhile which color they used for those black bits.

 

[bluejay]

thats a good question , its over cast here today so its kinda hard to tell . its close but i dont think its the same colour . i see that it has more metallic flecks on the black piece around the lights but ill give it a good wash a take a look again when it is sunny out. when its over cast the car looks black but when its sunny out so many more colours come through . its has like a brownish , red/yellowish pearl to it, im assuming thats the mosaic.
