Isn't there a sticker on the front left hand shock tower under the bonnet ?

It should have the colour name and code on it.

I reackon that could be a one off candy colour. The closest BMW has done to this would be Calypso but this is a bit brighter than calypso....................and looks a bit cheaper IMO 8O
