The paint code for a 2014 Honda Civic is typically located on the driver’s side door jamb sticker. If it’s not there, check the trunk interior label or the engine bay label as alternative locations.
In this guide, we lay out the most common places to look for the color code and how to read it so you can order the correct touch-up or replacement paint.
Common locations to check
These are the most reliable places where Honda prints the color code on a 2014 Civic. Look for a small block labeled with a color code or the words COLOR, PAINT, or PNT CODE.
Driver's door jamb sticker
The paint code is usually printed on a sticker on the door frame of the driver’s side. It sits near the VIN and tire information. Look for a field labeled COLOR, PAINT, or PNT CODE with an alphanumeric string (for example, NH-XXXX or R-XXX).
Trunk lid / rear hatch label
Open the trunk and inspect the underside of the trunk lid or the inner side of the trunk for a label containing the color code, often near other vehicle details like the VIN or tire specs.
Engine bay / radiator support label
On some Civics, the color code appears on a small plate or sticker in the engine compartment, near the radiator support or firewall, alongside other specs.
Owner’s manual or service booklet
If printed labels aren’t found, the color code may be listed in the owner’s manual or the maintenance/service booklet, sometimes in a color chart or vehicle specifications section.
If you still can’t locate the code, contact a Honda dealer and provide your VIN; they can pull the exact factory color from Honda’s database.
How to read the color code
Honda color codes are typically a letter-and-number combination (for example, NH-577 or B-23). The code identifies the exact paint color used on your car. Use the code, not the color name, when ordering touch-up paint or arranging a color match with a body shop.
Note that color names printed on labels are for human readability; the code is what professionals use to ensure an exact match.
Summary: For a 2014 Honda Civic, start by checking the driver’s door jamb sticker for the paint code. If it isn’t there, inspect the trunk interior label or the engine bay label, and consult the owner’s manual or a dealer if needed to confirm the exact code.
