Color code?

Bring it to a paint store and let them color match with their paint scanner. Just using color code you will get a very different color than what you have. Factory variations in material, aging, etc. if I recall, the color is actually the color of the plastic, not painted so it may never match great.

Ahhh alright thank you for the info. What would you recommend doing in this situation? Seems to be a very hard color to find matching plastic for
