Interior door handle / armrest colour

[Shinjuku79]

The interior door handle / armrest on my V8V has a fairly large chip in it due to a careless moment with the seatbelt buckle.

It's the grey coloured thing with the seat leather colour coded leather pad on it.

Does anyone know where I can get a touch up for this or what the paint code is?

Thanks

I think there are two different colours for this part. One is a light, slightly glossy silver/grey and the second is a much darker (and a bit more matte finish from memory) blue/grey. Not sure what the colour reference is for paint matching, but I'm sure someone will come alomng with suggestions soon.

I would also be interested in this. It is white underneath the chip.

Bin them and get some carbon fibre ones

I'd be interested in this as mine has got a very small chip in the passenger side door handle.

I'm looking for a small paint touch up for this.

My old 4.3 had the same problem. I had them powder coated piano black which is an option on later models. Looked good and more resilient.

I had the same chip in the same spot and I did just that... The problem is that I got carried away once I was taking parts out and I'm spending a fortune... (And these pics don't even show the exterior mirror caps, exterior door handles, interior door pulls and handles [a pain to remove from the pull], side strakes and door sills I also removed to replace with custom carbon parts) Lol
