Here is a link I found when searching for VW Paint color codes.
They have almost every VW code listed with part number and what year the color was used from. Hope this will help some of you as it did me when it came to painting my split.

Yea I know that`s why I said almost every color. I could not find Azure blue the color of my split, but it will help a few people.

For most of them, I just use http://autocolorlibrary.com/acl_files/Volkswagen.html
Gives you things like this... alright, posting the images doesn't work.

The Bordeauxred L51 can be found in the links I posted earlier...

Just select Werkstatt and then Farbnummern!!! No paintchips though..

All info states that Bordeaux Red was used until 3-31-51. I have an April 10th car original color Bordeaux red. Any one else have any discrepancies?
