      Berrilyium orange..HELP

      Anyone know of any paint comparable to the saleen color berrilyium orange since BASF won't keeps all the info top secret, to the point that they supposedly go to saleens plant to paint the cars themselves and take back all extra materials. I love the color, I also like 06 corvette sunset orange metallic but it's a little to red. Any ideas? Here's the color I'd like:

      I think that if you can get a sample of the color you can have it mixed up in another company's paint. Lots of them have color matching software to figure out what pigments/tints to use.
      All you need to do is try to find one that got wrecked and get some part off of it.

      This does assume that there is nothing too special about the paint itself, and that is a big assumption.

      I thought about that too but I'd imagine its not too easy to come by a wrecked s7. Thanks, Chris

      thats a nice color. It almost looks like a orange chrome elusion though.

      I would suggest just going and looking a paint chip book. there are so many cool looking oranges and tangerines out there now. Just make sure you take the chip book outside in the sunlight to see what it will actually look like. I know its not the same as seeing it on a car, but it does give a pretty good idea.

      Kinda looks like Kandy tangerine.

      Look into House of Kolor. They have some paints that look like that
