Can someone please help me?

I called BMW today to get the colour colde for my roof(going to paint an aerospoiler). BMW said the code was 899, but when i searched on the forum to doublecheck i found another code, 382. Which one is the right code?

I hope someone can answer me, as the spoiler is about to be painted:S

Edit: white roof btw

Ingrid

Hi,
If you open the bonnet and look on the left hand side near the water bottle for screen wash there is a build plate for the car, I am sure it states the paint code?? If not the chassis No is best bet.
Good luck!

It's Aspen White if that's any help - is the body shop not able to help?

382 is the BMW/Mini option code for a white roof and mirrors, 899 is the paint colour code.
