Hi, can anyone tell me where to find the paint code on a 97 Boxster? It's silver, so I assume it's Arctic Silver, but just want to make sure. Thank you!

It's on a white sticker on the underside of your front hood. The sticker should list your car's factory option codes as well as the paint code. Let me know what you find as I'm curious. On my Arctic Silver '00 Boxster S the paint code under the hood is "L92U".

You usually find it on the Maintenance Manual sticker, the sticker under the front hood and on the chassis near the left front light (inside the carpet of the front trunk). See diagram below...

You guys were correct, it was located under the hood and under the carpet in the luggage compartment. My code is also L92U. Thanks again for the help.

I ordered the bumpercaps and door handle lock cover for my car, can't wait to get them, will be a small improvement that I can't wait to get. I hate looking at the small holes in the bumper and the ratty looking key lock. I think this is the last upgrade for a while, now I need some warm weather to drive it in.
