Has your friend looked at all of the "hidden" painted areas like under carpets, spare tire well, behind plastic panels?  Those areas generally don't get repainted unless the entire car has been media blasted or chemically dipped and stripped and would still have original factory paint.

There is no way that I know of to establish original color from the VIN.  You have to go back to the original paint layer or in an area that has not been repainted.
