Not sure if this question has already been asked.... but does anyone know the paint code of the front grille? I'm sure the code is written on a sticker on the inside of the part when the bumper is removed. Just checking if anyone knows, or if you're taking you bumper off anytime soon, please check it out.

Thanks!

I haven't found the code yet either. I wanted to repaint mine and fill the holes, the dealer offered me a new replacement bumper insert for 80$. I may keep the stock one and have a body shop paint it to match the car (black mica) and fill the holes. If I find out though, I'll post up.
 
I thought i read about your quest somewhere. If you do find it, please post! I'll do the same.

I'm pretty sure it will be on the back of the stock grille. I noticed a sticker on the inside of the rear bumper with the paint code.

Yup it's turning out to be an expensive/messy quest. Just pull the insert. It's not that hard! If I do it before you, I'll look to see if there's a sticker and post.
 
Update:

I spoke to someone in parts and they said that the piece is injected with that gray color and is not painted ergo why there is no factory paint/touch-up. You'd have to take the piece to a shop to have it color-matched and even then it probably won't be the same. I'm pulling mine soon, filling the holes properly, and spraying with Black Mica to match my car.
