Default Does Santorini Black = Ultimate Black?

I've a 2010 XFR with black metallic paint which I'm led to believe is Ultimate Black. How can I confirm this?

Second question is whether Santorini = Ultimate Black, I had a mirror cover blow off in a carwash and now it's all roughed up after being abused in the carwash door. I'm looking for a pair of the original covers but want the colour to match....call me a stickler for detail, haha.

Default Paint color

Look on the placard on the bottom right of the drivers door. Each color has a paint code. Then call the dealership. I do believe ultimate black and metallic black are the same. Santorinni black is a land rover color. It ma,y have its own specific paint code.

PEL is the ultimate black code, when I got a custom spray can made up they sent me Santorini Black by mistake and issued a new can.

Now I used the Santorini black as an undercoat for a project and they look identical to me. I have recently approach a car body shop as someone keyed my drivers side and they tell me both are PEL and basically the same colour.

Hope this helps
