As above really... Ive looked in the usual places i.e. door and bonnet but u cant seem to find the paint code anywhere on the car?
Im sure im missing something blindingly obvious

Passenger side suspension turrent under the bonnet is the usual suspect.

It's gone walkies then. If you're trying to figure out what colour your car is you can ring BMW and give them your VIN number, from this they can give you the original spec sheet which I imagine would include the paint name and code.
Or you could just post a pic up here and get 657 different opinions on what it is.
