What's the paint code for Rock Red?

[Tim Cullis]

I know the scheme code is 950, but what's the paint code. And is it officially metallic or flat?

My mate tells me the paint code is "FAST AS F*CK".

Not sure it`s correct though........

I found this, it doesn't specifically say whether it's metallic or flat but it seems all the metallic paints are label as such so would presume Rock Red is flat.

Thanks Tim. That was where I got the 950 paint scheme code from.

I hoped the bike configurator on BMW Germany's site would help, but there wasn't a code. Confusingly Germany describes both Rock Red (Felsrot) and the Yellow colour as 'uni metallisiert', which I read as a unilacquer paint which is metalised. Granite Grey is described as metallic, whilst NightBlack is 'uni'.

At this rate it looks as if I'm going to have to approach a dealer to paint the panels.
