Unhappy What Color is My TL???

I just got my 99tl live a month ago. Funny thing is, I have no idea what color it is! The dealer didn't tell me, well he said it was Silver, but it looks a little gold too. I just washed it yesterday, and it looked silver, but I am sitting at work now, and I love at it, and it looks a litle gold. I am getting confused. I want to order a body kit for it soon, but I don't know what color it is?

Help Me?

Talking Heather Mist

That is what someone else said, but I didn't know. B/c the Interior is Parchment, so I figured you couldn't have silver with tan interior! Thanks, now I can work on this OEM Kit.

Yitbos

you might want to try and register using the owner's link at acura.com. It will ask you to put your VIN # and once you do that it will tell you all the details about your car including the exact Acura color. Hope that helps!

yup, get the color code from the driver's door jamb and then enter the car's info here to match it up...

www.paintscratch.com

or just go to parts and give them the code, they can tell you the color written on the touch up paint bottle.

Heather Mist is a very nice champagne color....goldish/silverish. And that color your refering to is Laguna Green Metallic.
