All the white colors and codes that i know of: Dover white=WU, Noble white=WY, and Crystal white(10 AE color)=UC. As far as which one looks the best i really cant say, but i like UC. Now dont take my word for it cause i might be wrong about the codes.

You're right about the 10 AE code, it's UC - Monochromatic Crystal White

when u goto the paint shop, do u guys just say "i want crystal white" and they know what ur talking about? or the UC code is linked to some database?

my white TII has faded alot in the paint.. I was thinking of having it done Championsihp White.. but if I goto the body shop and tell them this name they look at me funny

check my sig and go to that link and look at my 10th AE, it has a WY fender and UC body you can tell the difference. WY is a bit more "yellow" and UC is just plain "white"
