Does the hardtop match the car colour? If it does, then there will be a paint code on the manufacture plate on the firewall. Probably "3L".

Otherwise, some links that might help;

Thanks folks! No it doesn't match the car colour, car is red with silver wheels, sometimes black wheels, anyway I can live with a silver top on a red car, it kinda grows on you.
