Sorry guys, submitted before I was done and got distracted at work. Here is the puzzle:
B - Black
b - Brown
r - Red
o - Orange
y - Yellow
g - Green
i - Indego (Blue)
v - Violet
s - Silver (grey)
w - White
X ( Y Z ) indicates Y and Z colored stripes on a X colored background:
g (b v g bw b)
y (rB bo g bw bw)
r (bw g o bs g)
i (bs g i rb by)
I wish I could imbed images, it would be a lot more entertaining that way.

We don't even see the question?
*edit* I guess some background may be necessary. I solved this puzzle in a puzzle scavenger hunt where we were not told what the puzzles were. There are four distinct and randomly ordered objects: Tubes that are colored as described above.

bB (bs g)
y (bw rB)
i (s g)
r (rg g)
s (rg b)
🙂
I have an extension of this puzzle I'll post a little later if you're interested.
Anyone else have any insights?

For iamatiger, or anyone else interested, here is an extended version of the puzzle. The rules are slightly different, and there's a little more to it:
