paint code - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

Hey, does anyone have any idea what the paint code is for a standard black 1997 boxster? I'm at the office (where my side skirts and rear diffuser are located) and my car is at home and I want to drop off the parts this afternoon. Any help would be appreciated!

Here is a link I used.

If you don't have a renntech membership, it's L719.

My car sticker says L741, but I have a 99.

Renntech shows 741 for Water Based Paints ( 99 - 01 ) and 747 for Conventional Based Paints ( 99 - 01 )

Hope this helps...

Thanks guys! That's exactly what I needed. You saved me a trip to the house and a one day delay.

You may be right, Nick. I was going by the 986 Parts catalog, which doesn't list L741, but L741 is listed on a paint website as Porsche's black clearcoat, and hell, it's on your sticker...
