I am looking to get the OEM panniers painted and need to point the paint guy to the correct colors. I'd like to get the codes for Lupine Blue and the Light White. Any help is much appreciated.

Lupine Blue. Is that an attempt to make it sound a bit less ....... floral?

I'll confirm those are the correct codes.
So there is no confusion, Light Grey Metallic M21 is the color that looks white in certain light conditions.

Thanks. I thought the light grey was the tank center piece and the valve head covers and the whiter portion of the fairing was �light white�.

Wouldn�t lupine be more floral? Less wolf-like? 😜

The tank center on a Lupin bike and the bag lids are Granit-Grey.

Unless you are in America where lupin and lupine are used interchangeably. I'm not sayin' that makes it right.

Got the various parts back from the painter today. He did a great job matching the colors. Here's a shot of the left side case installed. I'll try to get pics of the bike this weekend assuming a break in the rain that is forecast. Painted_6163.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)

Nice.
When you take more pictures could you stand back farther?
Is there a silver pin stripe between the lupin and light grey?

Getting 'there's a lupin in my garden' and 'there's a lupine in my garden' mixed up, could have disastrous consequences!!

Yes, he put the same color darker grey as a pin strip. He was able to use the color from the side fairing logo as the color to match.

And yes, I will take pics from further distance. I also had some BarkBuster hand guards painted to match the color scheme. Now looking to get a protective vinyl overlay on the side cases so I don�t scuff up the paint with my boot when getting on/off the bike.

I used this 3M film on the top of our bags.

If you scratch the film with your boot it can be removed and a new piece applied.

I liked this applicator better than the yellow one in the link above.

How do these overlays work with curved surfaces, as on BMW panniers?
