VIN doesn't contain colour data.
If the RPO codes sticker is in tact that will. Door jam is most likely location, unless you have the build sheet?
And agree with Dan on the bird choice.

Think it's going to be silver but will wait till i have spoken to body shop,
sorted power steering hose replaced no more leaks nice, and replaced rubber hose from radiator to gearbox as this was metal pipe that had two rubber hoses on replaced as well as they looked like they were weeping,

Right, in the possess of putting in reverse sensor,s found a lot of bad wiring so an extra job to do now to sort this out found the green wire for the reverse circuit that was fun it wasn't giving me 12volts found the switych on steering coloum not connected properly so fun fitting back in place but also have no reverse lights so question do i add extra reverse light ie a led strip under bumper or do i convert the lamp sockets? or not and just have sensor's?

I think the LEd kit may be good for side lights, but I have a feeling you wont be able to see much with them while reversing. Usually side lights a 5W which these are for replacing, a reverse bulb is 21W, so you would need 4 of these per side, so 8 along the bumper to get enough light as a pair of reverse bulbs. It would look awful. Well that's what I think anyway.
I'd prefer to convert the lamp sockets, well keep it in the rear light cluster, is there no socket there for it at the moment?

The car dosn't have reversing lights the green wire has been cut, i beleave from the lights i have the two (one etherside of fuel flap were the reverse but have since been changed to indicator lights and all other lights are rear lights + with brake lights ie 3 rear lights per side and two brake lights per side as can be seen from picture the wiring has been played with badly so i have to sort that and would like to put reverse lights in weather it be a led unit under bumber or intergrate in to light cluster but my lights are smoked type all the lights work ie rear lights brake lights indicators,
