    Anyone know the paint number for Neon Orange or the nearest equivalent.

    I have asked Orange but they are unable to tell me.

    I am in the process of upgrading my wheels & the new (white) rims I have just do not look right compared to what they were.

    Looks like RAL2000 (Yellow Orange) or RAL2008 (Bright Red Orange).

    Without getting a colour chart next to it in flat light it’s difficult to tell really.

    You could try taking it to an industrial paint supplier and matching it against a proper chart.

    How can Orange not know the colour of their paint? How do they order the stuff? Or do you mean unwilling rather than unable? Either way it’s a pretty poor show.

    what they said

    The Neon Orange is not a standard BS or RAL colour so the manufacture`s code will not mean anything
    to any other manufacturer

    Still I agree they must know otherwise how do they order/mix up the stuff.

    You certainly can not tell the colour from the above photo. It looks nothing like that in the flesh.

    browsing around the world of STW just saw this current post.

    perhaps I should not bother – it is just for vanity after all.

    How can Orange not know the colour of their paint

    because its a custom mix for them and theyre not too keen to give it away?

    Weirdly that pics looks like their standard mandarin orange not the neon, they are very different in the metal but dont always show so well on photos.
