Where is the paint code lable

[sailor]

New owner, sorry for the simple question but the manual says it's in the spare tire well, NO IT'S NOT! I have also looked everywhere else I can think of. Is there a secret place?

I also need floor mats and I can't be sure of the color. Interior looks gray but carpet looks almost dark beige.

Any help or opinions are welcome.

Someone must have found this lable on their Avant.

Isnt it in the spare tire well?
or go to paintscratch.com and i think they have all of them by year.

It is supposed to be in the spare tire well according to the manual, but I can't find it in there. Each online paint site seems to have different colors for some strange reason, some don't even list a silver, some list several silver colors. I would just like to know the actual code.

My owners manual had a sheet with my cars paint code and options on it. I'll look for a sticker on the car later.

I am pretty sure that paintscratch shows the actual Audi codes.
