So are we going with phoenix yellow = BMW performance yellow?

I have an e30 and im doing a BBK on it and I am planning on doing the brakes performance yellow but can't find a color code.. So I was thinking the same thing. Maybe phoenix yellow.

Yes, they are the same color, I used the Phoenix yellow to touch up my BMW performance BBK and didn't notice any color variation.

Phoenix yellow looks really good in person on e46 m3 it kinda grows on you.

Painting brakes goldish/bronze on a white car looks pretty good from what I've seen on some BBK's
