Default Advice for bottom pulley VAP

I want to purchase the bottom pulley and tune for MY17 3.0 British Design Edition. To make the purchase VAP is asking what color bottom pulley I currently have installed( Black or Black and silver). I can not see it from the topof the engine bay and my car is in storage soit hard to get under it to remove the bottom chassis cover to see from there. Any advice, tricks or pearls? Thanks

Some people put a camera phone down there from the top and took a video.

I taped a fishing line to my phone/camera....dropped it in... and fished around for 20 min before it fell off. DO NOT DROP IT IN WITH A MAGNETIC PHONE HOLDER!!! extracting 30 plus screws, my phone was salvaged. DO NOT guess at the color! Mine was BLACK (Vin# K38213)

VAP Bottom Pulley and Tune is THE BOMB, Sir....well worth ANY inconvenience.

HAVE FUN!

I took a picture from above. A mechanic's mirror might have helped but turned out to not be necessary. It wasn't very good, but got just enough of the pulley that Stuart was able to positively ID it (silver, in my case).
