I've changed the camera angle (helps) and I've sampled the color from a 
real forklift. However I can't get the light right to get the color 
appearing right.

Here's my light source. The lift is about 5u tall.

light_source {
   <0, 0, 0>            // light's position (translated below)
   color rgb <1, 1, 1>  // light's color
   translate <-30, 30, 30>
}

I've attached the real forklift with the sampled area circled and a 
swatch showing the color. I've then applied this as a pigment (without 
any other finishings) to the forklift. As you can see, the result is 
very dull. What do I need to do to get the color I asked for?

Cheers!
