Default no paint code label-how to find codes?

I've a 2000 A4 with the dark blue color that's pretty common for that year. To get the bumpers painted I want the paint code, which is supposed to be in the spare tire well. Well (pardon the pun), it's not there. I don't have the manual either, as I bought the car used.

That leaves me with having to eyeball the color code. I looked at a website or two for touchup paint, but the wee bitty color patches they show aren't enough for me to pay someone to buy paint. Does someone have actual car pictures with color names or codes that I could look at?

thanks,

Ming Blue? My 98 Audi is the dark blue colour (nearly black) and the colour code in the manual was Ming Blue. I bought some touch up paint from Ebay with which the listing also contained the colour code I think?

Default might have found it

Looked at one of the car websites and then went looking on Google. I think its Santorin Blue Pearl

My options sticker is located in my Audi manual folder thing, but it should also be in the spare wheel well.
