So white was called "Chamonix", silver was "Polaris", there was a light yellowish beige called "Manilla", a green called "Agave", an orange called Colorado...stuff like that.
Unless this '75 hood has very non-BMW red oxide primer, it's one of the BMW red colors.
Who can name it?

Need some hints? One name is a city in Italy, one is a city in Spain. I am going from memory so probably have skipped something.
OK I will guess: Malaga red
