Help with paint color

I cant find the paint code for my car. Its a 1986 Trans Am Silver with gray ground effects.

Should the trim tag be on the Radiator support? If so mine is gone.

It was repainted a few years ago and I talked to the body shop that painted it, but he did not keep records, but assured me it was repainted with the stock colors.

Cna some one name this color please? I need a mirror painted cause Im installing power mirrors from a Camaro.

Thanks

Just put the power mirror guts in your already painted housing.

The passenger side has different inside mounts for the motor. It worked for the drivers side but the passenger side motor would not mount up to the mirror.

So I only have to paint one.
