well as the title states, I need the paint code for my 2001 silver tib. having my body kit repaired by a friend, and the paint code is missing from the door. any help would be great.

the code on my door only says "LS"... doubt that helps much though... sorry!

Check your driver's door jam, it should say there.

^^ did you just buy your tiburon newb? joke.gif It dosn't say though.


the paint is duralast sterling silver

the HMA paint code is: TW

Not sure if this helps
Mine says LS in the door jam also, but the touch-up paint that I got with the car (Hyundai brand) says:
Arctic Silver - 001HCPENLS - 040401

Those last digits might mean something!!! tongue.gif

UHm, Yeah, it does - Unless your car was in an accident and they were stupid enough not to put the VIN plate back
2000 and 2001 are either BX - Bright Silver or LS - Artic Silver
The TW silver as far as I know is not until the 2001 XDs or 2003 GKs
And not all Silvers were the same, I can almost gaurentee you that it is not TW, LS most likely, but some 2001's still had BX

Or just call your local dealership and give them your VIN #,... they will tell you..

I would suggest that^
Call your dealer and give them the VIN.

No, alot of tiburons do not have a color code on it. Mine has the box unstamped.

But, you're right. I was looking at 2005 color codes. click here for what the dealer will look up. LS or BX http://hmaservice.com/index.jsp?SSOSESSION...7aN%2FyImoZjpae
