Q to all 55 /65 w215 drivers

Hey guys,

I want to paint my V12TT anthracite OEM grill in silver like the 55/65 CLs.


- What is the factory finish, matt or gloss silver?

- Especially for the silver drivers: Does the factory silver grill color match the 744er Brilliantilber or it is darker or lighter?



Thank you .... Any help would be appreciated.

Jochen

It matches the silver of the car. I can take a picture of my 65 in the morning if it helps.
