72 Sunflower Yellow
The nice thing about being a bright yellow is that you stand out so others on the road can see you and hopefully avoid you.

Ill take your word for it, seems like the places I have wet sanded, it is alittle darker so I wasnt sure. I know its not original so the code is no help. I do like the Daytona though
