Went to the dealer today to check on the cost of the aero spoiler, and told them I wanted a white painted one....not primed. I was asked which color white. They took my vin number , which told them my 02 is a Chilli Red, but gave no color code on my white roof and mirrors. I'm pretty sure it would be the Alpine white spoiler color. Does this sound right and has anyone else hit this problem? What is pepper white?

Pepper White (order code 850) is a body color.

White (order code 382) is a contrasting roof color.

You DO NOT want your spoiler painted Pepper White.

I your dealer doesn't know what color matches the white roof on a Chili Red MINI, I'd find another dealer

thanks, I was unimpressed with the sales guy at this SO CAL dealer today, that he couldn't answer this basic question. The other SO CAL dealer I've been to is worse than this one though. I appreciate your help.

Hopefully their service department is a little more knowledgeable

Pepper white is kind of creamy -- like a creme brulee.

It is not the same as the white contrasting roof color, which is a white-white.
