I’ve checked McMaster Carr and all they have is green, beige, black and, blue. If anyone has orange G10 sheets specifically 3/32” or 3/16”, I’d be interested.

Also please clue me in on other manufacturers that may sell other colors as well. Thanks
 
A lot of the knife handle guys use this material, probably many more than rocketry folks. I see plenty available, for instance, on eBay.
 
Keep in mind the strength requirements for your application. There's more involved than just color, for the McMaster material anyway. There's a factor of almost 4X in tensile strength between the different colors as they are intended for different end uses.
 
Why orange, just curious?
Making a custom kit. I think it’ll be pretty cool. I’ll probably post a build thread eventually once I get all the parts. I’m keeping my answer to your question discrete since I don’t wanna let out all the details right now. Just remember, it’ll have a little orange on it ;)
