hmmm....

I think you should ask your local automotive paint supplier this question, Names of colors mean very little in todays automotive paints. It is all done by paint codes. Go into your local paint store & tell the counter man or woman what you have in mind. They should have dozens of color books to look at. Most of them if you tell them orange, then they can hand you a book of orange color chips to look at. Just take your imagination with you. Remember, when looking at pictures of cars & colors, usually the photos & digital images do not give justice to the real colors of the vehicles unless they are real automotive paint chips.
