Hey SVTPerformance members,


I recently purchased a 1999 Cobra around this year, October. I got it for a great price, but I'm starting to think it's been re-painted from looking at it. Is there anything/anyplace I can go to find the original paint color? It just bothers me.

Thanks.

Brandon, the info below is from the Late Model Restoration website.

You can find your paint code on the vehicle identification sticker located inside your driver’s door (see picture below). The paint code for your New Edge Mustang is located in the bottom left hand side of the manufacturer ID sticker. It is labeled “EXT PNT”.

Once you have the paint code you can use the simple chart below to find the official Ford paint name for your paint code. Hopefully this will help you get your exterior restoration project underway.
