It's a one off color. There is no MB paint code for it. jrcart spent a lot of time trying to figure it out. There's a post somewhere here where he's identified how to do it.

Oh, then it must be some sort of custom code. It's an exclusive color that's specific to the SLS BS, maybe they just reused the code.
Eventually, the info will get out there on how to paint the color, seeing as it's an official production color now, even though it's only for 1 car.

278-solarbeam yellow, however you will not find a standard color code breakdown becuase Solarbeam is not a standard paint, it is more like a powder coating process. It takes a week to paint the car due to the complex process.
House of Kolors Chrome Yellow SG 102 s the closest thing you will find in a standard paint system and looks nearly identical to Solarbeam.

Standox developed a paint system for collision centers for MB Alubeam. They might be working on Solarbeam...BTW Solarbeam was never a production color for the C BS, they produced two show cars in that color and they were never for public sale.
