Dan Kennedy's Orange F1

Does anybody know what the name of the colour of Dan Kennedy's orange F1 is? The one in the video with the annoying woman.

An even tougher question is how would I find the paint manufacturer and paint code? I would like to get a new Lotus in that colour.

Many thanks for any advice or information.

Yes, "Kandy Orange", a custom color that Dan chose. It was originally Base Silver.

There may or may not be a "paint code". Unless he picked the color from a company like Dupont, Glasurit, et al there won't be an official code like there is for a Ford or Chevy. He may have handed them an item and said "here - match this" for all we know.

Re: Dan Kennedy's Orange F1

speaking of his F1 (that he no longer has possession of...), does anyone know what the black raised disc shape is for in the mid to bottom right of this picture near one of the rear windows? I cant really say i've noticed it before



something to do with the aftermarket stereo?
