How to Find Your BMW X1'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 X1. We've recorded a staggering 59 colors for this model, proving that BMW designers couldn't decide between "corporate boardroom" and "tropical vacation." You'll find the classics like Alpine White III and Black Sapphire Metallic, but they also leaned into some wilder territory with Valencia Orange Metallic, Night Fever Black, and the earthy Cape York Green Effect. Whether you're driving a car that's "50 Shades of Grey" (shoutout to Space Gray, Mineral Grey, and Skyscraper Grey) or something that glows in the dark, there is a lot of personality packed into these small SUVs.

What to Watch For

Before you get to work, you need to find your "Farbe" (that's German for color). Open your driver's side door and look for a black sticker on the jamb; the three-digit code is usually tucked near the bottom. If it's not there, check under the hood on the passenger-side strut tower. One thing to note: the X1's clear coat is famously polite-meaning it's a bit soft. It tends to pick up road rash on the hood and tiny chips around the door handles quite easily. You might also notice the clear coat on the plastic bumpers can get a little temperamental if the car has lived its life in the baking sun, so catching those small nicks early is key to keeping the "peel" at bay.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many X1 colors are pearls or "effects" (like Utah Orange or Blue Bay Lagoon), those tiny metallic flakes like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or brush for a full 60 seconds-longer than you think you need-to wake up that sparkle. When applying, do not try to "paint" a stroke. Instead, use the tip of the applicator to dab a tiny drop into the center of the chip and let it flow to the edges. If the color looks a little dark at first, stay calm; these metallic shades require patience as they dry to reach their final, factory-matched shimmy.
