How to Find Your Hummer H3's Color Code

Hummer did not standardize the location of the color plate, so paint codes can be hard to locate. Across years they used many different spots. Usual places: the glove box or the spare tire well; if not there, it could be elsewhere. The code itself may appear as 51/WA316N, often preceded by BC/CC (e.g., BC/CC 51 or BC/CC 316N). Two tone labels can show as BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N (Upper Color and Lower Color).

The Color Breakdown

Hummer didn't just make a statement with the size of the H3; they went bold with the palette, too. With 60 recorded colors, they really leaned into the "adventure" vibe. You've got everything from the classic Olympic White and Victory Red to some truly wild choices like Swerve Green Metallic and Fusion Orange Effect. Whether yours is a rugged Charcoal Metallic or a head-turning Yellow, these colors were designed to stand out in a parking lot full of boring sedans.

What to Watch For

Before you start, you need your "secret recipe" code. You'll find it on the Service Parts Identification sticker inside your glove box. Look for a code at the bottom of the tag, usually starting with a "U" (like U8554).

Because the H3 has so many flat, horizontal surfaces, the sun tends to treat the hood and roof like a BBQ grill. This can lead to the paint looking a bit "chalky" or faded over time. You might also notice small bubbles starting to pop up around the edges of those fake hood vents or the door handles. Don't sweat it-catching these spots early with your touch-up kit is exactly how you keep a small chip from becoming a big headache.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Hummer colors-like Black Diamond Metallic or Desert Sand Effect-are packed with metallic flakes and "effects," your best friend is a vigorous arm workout. Shake that touch-up bottle or pen for at least two full minutes. You want to wake up those heavy metallic particles that have settled at the bottom so they match the rest of your truck.

When you're filling a chip, remember that less is more. Instead of one big glob that looks like a zit, apply two or three paper-thin layers, letting it dry for about 20 minutes between each one. If you're working on those plastic fender flares or trim, just make sure they are bone-dry and clean; the paint needs a fresh surface to grab onto!
