BMW L7 Touch Up Paint (17 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

BMW really leaned into the "Executive Limo" aesthetic for the L7, offering 17 distinct colors that range from the buttoned-up Diamond Black Metallic to some surprisingly adventurous choices like Island Green Metallic and Calypso Red Pearl. With no fewer than four different silvers and greys (including the tasty-sounding Salmon Silver Metallic), they clearly mastered the art of "50 shades of professional," but they weren't afraid to let their hair down with an Azure Blue now and then.

What to Watch For

Because the L7 is basically a living room on wheels, it has a lot of horizontal surface area-meaning the hood, roof, and trunk are prime targets for "clear coat sunburn." Keep a close eye on the roof and the tops of the door handles; the paint here likes to show its age by becoming cloudy or starting to bubble. To find your specific color code, pop the hood and look for a black sticker on one of the strut towers (the round metal domes near the engine). It will usually have a three-digit number and the name of the paint in German.

Driveway Repair Tip

When you're working with a touch-up pen or brush, especially on those fancy pearls like Laguna Green, your biggest secret weapon is the "Shake and Wait." Shake that bottle for at least 60 seconds to get the metallic flakes moving, then apply the paint in tiny, thin layers rather than one big glob. If you're filling a deep chip, think of it like building a sandwich: one thin layer at a time, letting it dry in between. These high-end metallics require patience to look their best, but taking it slow will keep your L7 looking like it belongs at the gala rather than the grocery store.
