Help Identifying Exterior Paint Color

Hey guys,

Does anyone know where in the car it might say exactly what color my car is? I've got some scratches on the rear bumper I was hoping to buff out and cover with some touch-up paint but I need to make sure I get the right color.

Thanks!

I have seen a sticker inside the engine bay, or on the driver's door jam which indicates paint color or paint code on many BMWs.

Name will most likely be in German (dont feel like going outside to look right now); not hard to figure out though..
