Default Code for factory interior paint

Does anyone have a code or name for the center console paint (the ugly silver)? Preferably in one of those duplicolor cans and/ or brush kits - i really dont want to go to napa to have a whole can of paint mixed. Ive got a few scratches and dont want to change the color of the console.

Ive also got a decent sized scratch on the shifter area (a6) and wanted to touch this up but the paint seems to be a semi gloss black... (where flat would be inappropriate , but so would gloss) any ideas? Id like to be able to get to a local auto store after work today and be done with this...

Thank you!

I hope things work out for you, but if not this may be a good time to look at getting a Center Console Cushions & Center Console Insulator.

Good Luck,

Thanks for they reply

It looks like Im going to need to remove the tab where the F55 suspension control would be and then take it to the store, pick out a couple of cans that are the closest, paint a piece of scrap metal or plastic and see which is the best choice.

If I ever find a good match for this paint, I will post here for future reference.
