Getting Paint Colors / Codes

I've got a 2016 Countryman (Park Lane) and I'm trying to get matching paint but can't seem to locate the paint codes anywhere. Any advice?

Thanks in advance!

MINI’s usually have a paint name and code sticker on the outer side of the passenger strut tower. You can also run your VIN on an online decoder to see all of it’s build options including the paint info you’re looking for.

Good resource. Unfortunately, my secondary color isn't listed. Probably because it was a "special edition." I couldn't find the codes listed anywhere on the strut tower anywhere either, weird. It took a little effort but in contacting a few paint resellers I was able to figure it out and get what I needed. Thanks again!

Did you check on the sticker in the door jam " C15 " = jungle green.
