How....to paint color?

This sounds crazy but I have a silver Z, does anyone know how to find which shade the silver exactly is?

Can they really fix a plastic bumper dent with those DingKing services? Metal I can understand, its workable. Plastic . . . not so sure.

I dunno, come to think of it I dont think so. Even if they "can" Lord knows how effective it will be. Im just gonna bring it to a top notch body shop, get raped finan cially but have the scratch/dent fixed, hopefully perfectly.
