How to Find Your 2009 Mitsubishi's Color Code

Mitsubishi paint codes are on a tag in the firewall area of the car, not on an exterior panel. The color code sits at the bottom mid-left part of that tag. Codes include letters, dashes, and numbers. The code R71 corresponds to Passion Red Clearcoat. R71 may be called Passion Red Clearcoat on some models. R71 may be called Red Clearcoat or Speed Red Clearcoat on others. Model marketing names can vary even for the same code.

2009 Mitsubishi Background Info

The 2009 Mitsubishi Vibe

2009 was a year of street-cred peaks and crossover shifts for Mitsubishi. The Lancer Evolution X was busy humbling supercars at stoplights, the Eclipse Spyder was clinging to the last days of the sport-compact craze, and the Outlander was quietly becoming the family workhorse. Our database tracks 32 distinct colors for this year, which is a lot of variety for a brand that usually sticks to the basics. You had "hero colors" like the fiery Rotor Glow Metallic and the electrifying Octane Blue Pearl that practically vibrated under gas station lights. Whether you're touching up a Raider pickup or trying to keep the hood of your Galant looking fresh, you're dealing with a palette that was designed to stand out, even if the factory didn't exactly lay it on with a trowel.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the "Thin Paint Era." By 2009, factory robots had become masters of efficiency, meaning they sprayed just enough paint to cover the metal and not a drop more. On models like the Lancer and Outlander, this resulted in a clear coat that's notorious for "road rash"-thousands of tiny chips on the leading edge of the hood and rocker panels where road debris has simply won the war. If you own a darker shade like Labrador Black Pearl or Rally Red Metallic, you've likely noticed that the clear coat is susceptible to UV "checking" or micro-cracking if it wasn't kept under a cover. The paint isn't failing because it's "bad"; it's failing because it's thin, making every stone on the highway feel like a targeted strike against your finish.

Restoration Tip

Since 2009 paint is remarkably thin, your best strategy for a seamless repair is to build your layers slowly. Do not try to fill a chip in one heavy "blob"-it will never level out properly and the solvent trapped underneath will keep it soft for weeks. Instead, apply the color in two or three paper-thin passes, letting each one dry until it's tacky before adding the next. Once you're just below the level of the surrounding factory clear, apply your clear coat and resist the urge to sand it for at least 48 hours. This era of paint needs its "cure time" to shrink down and lock into place, or you'll just end up buffing it right back off.
