Default Color Codes

Hello, I have a 1978 25th anniversary l82, I'm trying to find correct color codes, I have been able to locate the main body silver, Silver Metallic WA4963, my concern is the pin striping and the bottom portion, the pin striping Dark Gray Metallic WA4784 matches, but the bottom portion of the car is a different color? it is not the same as the pin stripping? is this correct, please help with bottom portion color code, or are the bottom and pin stripping suppose to be the same?

Post pics of your car. I think you are describing the optional B2Z two toned silver paint scheme used on the Silver Anniversary cars.
