Default Boxster Red color for calipers

I would like to paint my calipers in Boxster Red.

G2 gives the option to custom order the color, as long as it is an exterior car color. Info to be provided is Year, Make, Model, and Color Code. The following color which is the closest I found, but I wonder if there are any better choices. What do you guys think? Any better suggestions?

I thought about powder coating but I'd rather not spend the money at this point, I called a few shops and since it is not a common color they would have to make it for me and the price skyrocketed.

I did mine using the standard "Duplicolor caliper red" brush on paint. Picked it up at Pep Boys.

Looks nice, but looking for matching the interior. It is a cab. Red and Boxster red would clash a bit. Yellow ok but too much.
