As I build my Jager Racer, I am now to the point of picking the correct color. It comes down to #002-Colorado Orange, #022-Inka Orange, #028-Phoenix Orange, or #351-Kyalamiorange.
Each of these are Standard paint, not metallic.
I cannot find any of these actual colors online. Only the code numbers are listed on the various sites. Any ideas? I might just break down and go to a paint shop to see them first hand.
Thanks.

The correct colour is probably Jagermeister Orange, as used on the front page of their website, http://www.jagermeister.com/welcome/welcome.com.aspx.
The html code for this colour is #FF4600. A good paint shop should be able to make the paint up for you just from this.
Colorado Orange is definitely the wrong colour, far too yellow, as is Kyalami Orange.
Inka Orange looks much closer, as does Phoenix Orange (but it's not a BMW colour!)
If you can only get an 'off the shelf' colour, I'd say Inka Orange; if you have access to a competent paint shop, use the html code and get the right colour.

I wish I got your reply sooner. I ordered the Inka Orange this past Friday. I pick it up tomorrow. I agree, while its not exactly the same, i think the Inka is the closest match. Thanks for all of your replies.
