Default Paint code for silver satin body trim

Does anyone have any information on the paint references for the tailgate plinth with the “JAGUAR “ wording on it?

I can only describe it as a satin silver. Same colour as the wing vents.

Any help would be much appreciated

As they come from the factory, I've only seen them in chrome on the XK and matching body colour on the XKR but a PO could have diverged from this ..........

The "R" versions of the 4.2 had this platinum anodized finish on the plinth, drip mouldings & wing louvers.

It's clearly paint, not anodizing. I was going to use a high quality wheel paint from Summit to refinish mine on my xkr, but decided instead to swap out the trim for the polished xk version (still in progress). I think it will look nice with my chrome Sentas.

The drip mouldings are anodized aluminium, but yes the plastic bits are painted to match and appear “anodized”.
