Default Paint code: Front Bumper Grill Lips

What is the paint code for the darker grey than the WV2 (silver stone) on the front bumper girll lips, its almost black but looks like a dark metallic grey, do they sell the touch up paint for this or should i just go to advanced and try to come close?
Ive already tried searching everywhere with no success.

Thanks in advanced

It looks black, but its a metallic dark grey. black doesn't come close to a paint match.

My 08's grille is also that color, not black. And I can assure you it was not painted. Came from Nissan like that.

I believe it's KH2 if it's the same as my skirts, which I'm pretty sure it is. K11 is also close, based off a quick search.

No wonder why i couldn't find this paint it's discontinued, even Nissan didn't have it.
Had to have local paint shop order some.

Thanks again unicus
