Alu look trim- paint match?

I want to do a refurb of my alu-look gearshift as the silver paint has seen better days.

I can't find anything online, so a long shot, but anyone know a paint code to match the silver, or come across a close match elsewhere?
 
:popcorn:
 
To add, its a matt finish, with quite a pronounced flake.

I would go with the paint, then a satin clearcoat laquer probably, to protect it. Not decided how to re-emboss the black engraving in the shift pattern, probably run with a permanent black fine-liner before the clearcoat.

I would like to remove the alu part from the leather to refinish both it and the leather properly, but its not obvious how- it may be possible to carefully pry out but I really don't want to ***** it up as a new one is £ :eek:
