CA Mazdaspeed Trim Paint Code

i was wondering, since i am planning to paint my own side skirts using paint i am getting from Automotivetouchup.com
what is the paint code for the trim on the Mazdaspeed kit?

from what it looks like its some kind of gun metal or gloss black, but i want to know the exact paint code, since i plan on getting an authentic front and rear to go with it

hey if im correct, and its probably the same black as on the regular rx-8 plastic, i actually had fading on my rear plastic(around the muffler pipes) and what i did was taken a 'black' color in the spray can (brand name, SEM "trim black") and sprayed that on there and it worked awsome!(turned the fade the exact color of the other plastic) im sure it would work just as great on yours, i worked in an autobody shop for a while and there probably isnt a color code for the trim on the kit, you will have to go to an auto paint store and see if the have that SEM spray can, i hope this helps
