Where to find Fiat color code

How to Find Your Fiat's Color Code

Fiat paint color code locations vary by year and model. Possible spots include the driver's side door jamb; under the hood; sometimes on the front of the vehicle near the engine. Also on the underside of the hood, often near the lock mechanism, or on the side of the hood, which becomes visible when the boot is opened. Another location is inside the trunk or on the side of the lid, particularly on models like the Fiat 500.

Your Paint Color Profile

Espressor Metallic

The Look

This is not just another brown; it is a deep, caffeinated shot of Italian personality that defined the early comeback years of the Fiat 500. Since your car has likely been navigating the streets since somewhere between 2012 and 2015, the finish has probably developed a lot of character. This color was a bold choice that moved away from the standard greys and silvers of the era, offering a rich, earthy tone that looks sophisticated in the sun but can appear almost black in the shade. Because this shade is so dark and saturated, it tends to show every speck of road dust, but when it is clean and the finish is right, it has a depth that few other small-car colors can match.

Technical Details

You are working with a true metallic finish, which means the paint is packed with tiny flakes designed to catch the light. This creates a beautiful glow, but it also means you have to be careful during application. If the metallic flakes clump together or lay down unevenly, you will end up with dark patches or stripes that ruin the effect. Before you spray or dab Fiat Espressor Metallic (check for code KTM), you need to shake the container for at least 60 seconds to ensure those flakes are suspended evenly. Dark metallics like this are less forgiving than solid colors, so your goal is to keep the application light and consistent to prevent the "heavy" look that happens when the paint pools.

Best Practices

To find your confirmation, look for a silver sticker located on the underside of the hood or along the edge of the trunk lid. Once you are ready to begin, make sure you are working in a cool Garage or a patch of Shade, as direct sunlight will make the paint dry too quickly and create a rough texture. Test the color on the included card before touching the car to ensure the shade matches the current state of your aged finish. Whether you are using a Nozzle or a Brush, keep the container moving to avoid build-up in one spot. If you need multiple coats, wait for the recommended drying time between each layer to prevent the metallic flakes from shifting while they settle.

Will absolutely order from this company again.

After ordering touch-up paint from Lexus I was still waiting for it a month later. If they'd told me upfront it would take that long I wouldn't have ordered in the first place. Paint Scratch was recommended by a friend who restores cars. Easy ordering, fair price and fast shipping. The color match is great especially considering my car is a 2012. Will absolutely order from this company again. Reason I chose this business: Lexus collision repair and a local collision repair. Will use paint less dent removal and touch up chipped paint myself. Reason I chose this product: Spouse sideswiped passenger side of car while backing out of garage. Mostly plastic transfer from his wheel well trim but pressure creased and cracked the paint causing a bare strip 1/8 wide x 4” long below door handle. Scratches on door handle and a few small chips on both doors.

Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans

Used Paint Scratch metallic custom mixed spray cans paint on a hood panel with excellent coverage and texture over the surface. Metallic paint can be very unforgiving out of a spray can, sputtering pigmentation dots on the panel being sprayed and thus ruining the paint job. No such issues with Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint spray cans. Paint sprayed strong and evenly till the last drop of paint in the can. Shipping time was faster than expected. Reason I chose this business: Having tried other brands of custom mixed metallic paint with terrible results, sputtering pigmentation tint dots from the spray nozzle in spite of vigorously shaking of can prior to application and loss of propellant rendering the lower fifth of the can's paint useless, Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint sprays out beautifully and strong all the way to the last gram of paint in the can. Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans for automotive restoration. Thank you Paint Scratch.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find my vehicle’s paint code?

Your paint code is usually found in the driver’s door jamb, trunk, or under the hood. See our Fiat Paint Code Guide for detailed instructions.

Will this paint match my car?

Because your Fiat is older or uncommon, the most accurate option is custom matching where you mail in a small painted part for a hand match. Our paint technicians usually do a great job matching Fiat color code 'KTM' but a perfect match cannot be guaranteed.

Do I need primer and clearcoat?

While primer is recommended on bare metal or plastic, clearcoat is essential: it protects the basecoat and restores factory gloss.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are mixed fresh and ship within 3–5 business days. Delivery takes 2–14 days depending on location.

Which touch up product should I choose?

 It depends on the size of the damage:

  • Paint Pen (½ oz) – Best for very small chips and fine scratches.
  • Brush Bottle (2 oz) – Great for medium chips or scratches up to the size of a quarter.
  • Spray Can – Ideal for larger areas and panels.
  • Professional Sizes (Pint, Quart, Gallon) – Designed for full panel and vehicle resprays using spray equipment.

Not sure? If it’s just rock chips or small scratches, start with a Paint Pen.

Can I return my order?

Yes! If there’s a color match issue, we’ll replace the product or give you your money back. You also can return unopened, non-custom accessories for a full refund.

How long will the paint last in storage?

Paint pens and bottles last about a year if stored cool and dry. Spray cans can last several years if the nozzle is cleaned.
