2015 Fiat Touch Up Paint (46 OEM Colors)

The 2015 Fiat Vibe

Welcome to 2015, the year Fiat decided that every car on the road should look like a caffeinated jellybean. Whether you were rocking the classic 500 or the "I have kids now" 500L, the vibe was pure Italian personality. Our database tracks a staggering 46 colors for this year alone-because Fiat didn't just give you "Red," they gave you Rosso Metallic, Brillian Red Tricoat, and Rosso just for good measure. We've got everything from the hipster-favorite Mochalatte and Espressor Metallic to the "look at me" brilliance of Electric Orange Tricoat and Giallo Orca. It was a time of peak color expression, but as any old hand in the booth will tell you, personality comes with a price.

Paint Health Check

You've entered The Thin Paint Era. By 2015, the robots at the factory had become masters of efficiency, which is a polite way of saying they applied the absolute bare minimum of paint required to cover the metal. On a snub-nosed 500, that vertical hood is basically a catcher's mitt for road gravel. Because these coats are so thin, a single pebble doesn't just scratch the clear-it punches right through to the primer. You might also notice the "Sunroof Shucks"-that specific black trim piece between the windshield and the glass roof that likes to peel like a bad sunburn. It's not your fault; it's just the reality of modern factory film builds being thinner than a double-shot espresso.

Restoration Tip

When you're fixing chips on a 2015 Fiat, forget the "one and done" approach. If you try to fill a deep rock chip with one big blob of paint, it'll shrink, cave in, and look like a crater. Build your layers slowly. Apply a thin dab, let it flash off, and repeat until the repair sits just a hair higher than the surrounding surface. Since the factory clear coat is so thin, you don't have much room to sand or buff if you make a mess, so precision is your best friend. Work in the shade, keep your coats light, and remember: you're trying to mimic a robot's efficiency, but with a human's touch.
