Well, if it's anything like the body colors, it depends on your model year and even then, there can be different codes.

My dealership told me you have to have the last 6 digits of your VIN to get the correct paint code because there are so many variations of each color.

I found that odd, but that's what they say.

Actually, it's the last 7 digits. I tried to look it up without a VIN, couldn't find it.

My understanding is the roof color is Jet Black (nonmetallic). This old thread lists paint codes: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ead.php?t=2642

According to this, the jet black paint code is: BMW code = 668, Dupont Code = P1306

This page http://martinlewis.co.uk/ml/mini-paint-colour-codes/ (last line) also confirms the BMW code, and says it is the roof color.

Jet Black would make sense. I also show a Jet Black II, with the same paint code of 668
