Default How do I figure out what version of Red my paint is called

How do I figure out what Harley Davidson has officially named the color Red paint that used on my 2005 dyna wide glide?
I need to replace the front fender on my 2005 dyna wide glide.
To be able to search for a used fender that is already painted the same red,
or if I have to paint a fender to match the bike.
I need to actually know what red Harley calls it.

Thanks

IIRC, Lava Red Sunglo. Check out the ColorRite Motocycle Paint website. They match and sell HD paints to match OEM; some colors required an undercoat to exactly match the OEM color.

EDIT: GTG beat me to it but confirms Lava Red Sunglo.
