Is there any way to get a sample of a factory color to get the Hue/Saturation/Brightness values?
I am specifically interested in getting the values for the 2023 Nissan Z factory roof color as I want to replicate it for the bonnet.
I’m colour blind so I’ve recently an app on my iphone called what a colour. It has a colour picker tool that I use to get the values from a screen shot. I then use the HSB values but you need to do a calculation on the first value in order to convert it for use in the game. The calculation involves dividing it by 360 then multiplying it by 100 in order to get the hue value. The only part I find that sometimes isn’t right is the brightness of the colour, final slider in game, but that’s fairly easy to adjust close enough by eye, I think.

I found the name of the color, Super Black, on the Nissan website and then got the HSB values from Forza Colour Sheet (Est. 2019).
The only problem is the “sheen,” I guess. It’s not gloss or semigloss, and carbon fiber polished seems to be the closest thing to it but it’s still not exact.
Search for Fairlady Z 432 (for the 2023 Z) in the design catalog if you want to check it out.
