Late R4s (well, our 1990 Slovenian GTL) have four rows on the oval plate (it might actually be diamond-shaped, I can't remember!). On our car, the first row is 1128.
However, using the method of counting back 2 digits and reading off the previous 3 digits of the third row to get the paint code results in 002, which I'm not sure is correct. The car is metallic blue, so would be 4xx or 6xx I think. I can't see the paint code on the inner wing, but I'll have another look.
