Mitsubishi Shogun Sport paint codes, first generation Shogun Sport paint colours can be confusing – Here’s what to watch out for.
Many of the colours from Mitsubishi for the Shogun Sport [1st gen] where quite funky, your typical late 90’s / early 2000’s era, we like that and also like the fact that there were not that many colours for this particular model of Shogun.
For the early models you have around a dozen colours – this does not include the two tone models which were popular on the continent, for the UK market especially as the Sport grew older there were three main colours: black, blue and silver.
Finding the exact match online can be a challenge, for our own Shogun we have the paint code A71 which is silver, ‘SEATTLE SILVER’ to be more accurate. There is however another silver called ‘HAMILTON SILVER’ which has the same paint code and is ultimately the same paint.
Using the above we can assume that the names for the paint are not accurate so the actual codes are the thing to pay attention to.
Where is the code on the vehicle?
The best way to get the paint colour code for the Shogun is from the vehicle itself. On older models from 1998-2008 you can get the code from the ID plate in the engine bay – pop the bonnet and you will see a stainless steel rectangular plate riveted to the vehicle near the right hand side headlight.
The paint code should be the last piece of info on there and will have ‘COLOUR INT’ just before the three digit code which is stamped into the plate.
