Default Paint codes of a Type R

Ok so I have a 1996 Civic EK Hatch, does anybody know the paint code for the Dark Charcoal TYPE R color? I want to paint my car that color.

The Type-R never came in a dark charcoal color.

I'm afraid there might be some confusion here.

Do you think all '96-'00 hatchbacks are EKs?

Do you think all '96-'00 hatchbacks are Type Rs?

There was a dark charcoal color that came on some '96-'00 Civics overseas only.

No Type R ever came in a dark charcoal color. No USDM '96-'00 Civic hatchback ever came in a dark charcoal color either.

They came in white (Championship White), black (Starlight Black Pearl aka Flamenco Black Pearl), silver (Vogue Silver Metallic) and yellow (Phoenix Yellow aka Sunlight Yellow).

I know the different chassis codes, I just see the dark charcoal color on some Type R's so I wasn't sure. But there was a dark charcoal color overseas what is the paint code?

It's a color we have here on 5th gens too.

It's called Phantom Gray.

That helped beautifully it even has the pics, Thank you for the help. For some reason I always thought the Phatom Grey came on the Type R, I really don't know why. Thanks again for the help.

My impression is most people are not aware Phantom Gray came on 6th gens at all, but most know of it being on 5th gens.
