Lightbulb Color code for 40th anniversary red leather interior?

Does anyone know what the color code is or how I can get a paint color which matches the red leather interior of the 40th anniversary edition?

The reason I ask is because I want to get custom brake caliper paint in the same color.

I think it would look amazing and be a bit different than the standard fire engine red.

Thoughts?

i believe it is called cosmo red

MazdaUSA > Models > 2008 RX-8 40th Anniversary Special Edition

if you need pictures, i have a boatload.

all computers are different, and i dont have a pantone color chart with me... If you want i can go out to home depot in the very near future and grab a color swatch, then you go to home depot and grab the same swatch (dont use the computer, different computers give different readings on colors) ideally then you would want to match that color swatch from home depot with a pantone color swatch.

G2 now offers a custom paint, where you mix your own color.

An easy way to get the same color is to just paint red and let it get dirty and not clean it. its basically a dirty red orange color.
