hmmmm, you might be lucky and find one in the door shut of the drivers or passengers door, or on the inside front cover of the manual - if you've still got it...

I found an extra sticker on the off side front wing, to the side of the headlight - i can just about see it from the front of the car.

Bulk, looks like black magic / lc9z as suggested earlier.

Only porblem is there is about 9 shades of black magic - a decent body shop will be able to match it though. Thats what the guy did when I had mine sprayed.
