DON'T USE WAL MART TOUCH UP PAINT!!!
it looks like crap.
but to find your color code its on the underside of the spare tire cover in the trunk.

yea its a really bad idea.
my 99 sedan was black and the wal mart paint looked like hell. get the dealer one its worth the extra$1. black matches pretty easy so you wont notice the touch up.
GM only uses 3 different black paints,
1 gloss black (most likely the one you need)
2 metallic black (not sure what they used it on but im pretty sure its not the j bodys)
3 black pearl (only used on the caddys and corvette)
my 99 cavalier sedan was gloss black if that helps.
if your still not sure call a gm dealer with your VIN and they will tell you the paint code and color.

I use Wal-mart touch up paint all the time, then wet sand and buff. I can never tell anything was there.
