Default Help with Paint Code

Hey Guys, I could use some help. I've got a 05 V6 that's black. I bought a spoiler off an 09 GT last year. The spoiler is factor silver and looked so good, I didn't paint it black. The car goes to the shop next week to get silver stripes painted on. I wanted to match the stripes to the spoiler color but I can't reach the guy I bought it from and I see 3 silver paint codes listed for 09!!!! It's a bright silver. How can I tell which paint code it is?

If it's a lighter color silver, then it is likely "Satin Silver" with a paint code of "TL"

But, seriously, we can't know if that spoiler had factory paint on it. It *Probably* did, since you say it came off a 09 GT... but without a pic I'm shooting blind.

Is the color similar to my car below? If so, then it's TL

Haven't been on the forum lately. I see the insert image button but that inserts from a URL. How do I upload an image?

Sorry, wasn't tryin to be an ***. Upload your pics to any third-party image host like photobucket, imageshack ect. (or your own website) Then put the url between the [IMG][/IMG] brackets.

I edited my last comment with a pic of my car. Is your spoiler colored like mine?

Well inserting the URL didn't seem to work. Can you see it in that link I posted?
