Default Spark plug cover colour? - quick, easy question!

The search is giving me an error, no matter what I search for... plus it probably wont find the answer to my question.

Does anyone know what the STOCK colour of the spark plug cover is for b-series motors? I think it's kind of a gray/silver matt, but I dont know exactly and dont have one to compare it to.

thank you

Andrew

I don't get it... is he talking about himself? Anyway...

thanks for the offer for a pic, I already have one but was hoping someone had the actual code for the paint (or one that was nearly a match)

As it turns out - I found a generic light-silver paint that on close inspection matches perfectly

Ok you're getting into this pretty deep now, why the hell does this matter so much that you have to get close to the same paint for it? I don't get it?

I had an old cover that had been painted over at some point, and wanted to restore it to stock. Paint thinner just removed the factory paint layer too... it's ok now though, the paint I found is perfect!

Motomaster MMNM RADIANT SILVER.

Where I am it's not that easy to find one, unless I want to get ripped off by the local Acura dealership, or risk eBay (which I equally hate)
