How to Find Your BMW M Roadster/Coupe's Color Code

BMW paint color codes appear in varied spots: on the firewall, on the radiator support, on the door jamb, or in the trunk. Location varies by year; a diagram under Finding Your Color Code shows where. Typical code format example: 300, which corresponds to: Alpine White III Clearcoat. Same Color Code, Different Name: the same paint can have different names across models (e.g., 300 also called White Clearcoat, Premium White Clearcoat). The code is key to correct paint.

The Color Breakdown

BMW really went for it with the M Roadster and Coupe, giving us 10 distinct shades that range from the boardroom-ready Titan Silver Metallic to the "look-at-me" Phoenix Yellow Metallic. Whether you're rocking the iconic Laguna Seca Blue or the deep Oxford Green, these cars weren't meant to blend into traffic-and neither should your repair.

What to Watch For

Before you start, you'll need to find your paint code. It's usually perched on one of the front strut towers under the hood, but on some models, it likes to play hide-and-seek on the driver-side inner fender, sometimes tucked behind the black plastic ECU box. Keep a close eye on the "top" surfaces like the hood and the area around the tail lights; BMWs of this era are known for clear coat lift, where the top layer gets brittle from the sun and starts to flake away. If you see a white, crusty edge forming, catch it early with your touch-up kit before the desert sun turns your Imola Red into a pinkish science project.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since most of these colors-like Estoril Blue and Steel Gray-rely on heavy metallic flakes for that signature M-car glow, your secret weapon is the "The Long Shake." Shake your touch-up bottle for at least 60 seconds longer than the instructions suggest to ensure those tiny metallic bits are evenly floating in the paint. When applying, think "thin and patient." Use the tip of a toothpick or the very edge of the brush to dab the paint into the center of the chip and let it flow outward. It is much easier to add a second light layer later than it is to deal with a giant, runny blob of Jet Black on your fender.
