Induction kit (soon to be raplaced by JabbaSport item)

Engine bay needs sprayed, will get done at some point when i have done everything else, couple spots on roof where it looks like someone has burnt through it with a rotary, will get it done at the same time, does anybody have any clue as to what the exact colour is as the sticker in the boot has faded, anywhere else i can find the code?
