Front Grill Paint Color Code 2008

Does anyone know the paint code for the front factory grill on the XKR's? I need to touch up a few spots where the Silver paint has faded lightly.

Thanks in advance.

Mine was faded too when i got it, so a friend of mine air brushed mine and the two side grills with enamel chrome paint. Came out lovely with a nice bright finish, that stands out. I'm happy with it.

Looks great. The side vents as well. I really like the Red growler color contrast. Well done.
Perhaps, I will try a similar chrome and just paint the entire grill.

Just took around an hour to do the whole job, all parts. Put masking tape round the edges and 3 coats, dries nearly as soon as it is on. The enamel type paint gives it a good hardness to the paint when finished.
