How to Find Your Chevrolet Geo Spectrum's Color Code

Chevrolet did not make it easy to find the color code. Over the years they used many different locations and did not standardize the color plate, so it can be hard to locate. Usually it is in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise, the search may extend everywhere. The typical code is 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC. Two tone codes can appear as BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N (U for Upper, L for Lower).

The Color Breakdown

The Chevrolet Geo Spectrum may have been a humble commuter, but Chevrolet gave us a tidy palette of 8 colors to keep things interesting. It was a classic 1980s lineup-heavy on the metallics like Medium Gray Metallic and Bright Blue Metallic, with a side of "let's be bold" found in Bright Red. They even included a dedicated trim color called Sash Black for those window frames. It's a focused collection that says, "I'm sensible, but I've got a metallic personality."

What to Watch For

Because these were built during the era when clear coats were still figuring out their relationship with the sun, keep an eye on the roof and the tops of the fenders. The paint on these Isuzu-built gems tends to get a bit "chalky" or start peeling if it spent too much time in the driveway. To find your specific match, pop the hood-you're looking for a small metal ID plate usually riveted right to the radiator support (the metal frame just behind the grille) or tucked away on the firewall. It won't be a fancy sticker; it's an old-school plate that might need a quick wipe to be readable.

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with the metallic colors like Light Blue Metallic, those tiny silver sparkles love to take a nap at the bottom of your touch-up bottle. Shake that bottle for at least two full minutes-long after you think you're done-to wake them up. When applying, don't try to fill a chip in one go. If you put on one big "blob," the metallics will sink to the bottom and the color will look too dark. Instead, dab on a paper-thin layer, let it dry for 15 minutes, and then add another. This keeps the sparkles floating right where they belong!
