On my 93 it is on the drivers door. I had a friend with a 00' Crown Vic and it was in the same place as mine so maybe it is on the drivers door.

Its where the VIN number is. You'll see
"Paint Code" Then two capitalized letters. Go to your local auto store or online and buy the paint.

I have had a lot of luck with this company when using touchup paint:

They guide you though the whole process of ordering the correct color. Good luck.
