hi the paint code is under the bonnet on a plate . it is norm 3 numbers the handels should be the same colour coded with the car . paint code for epsom green is lrc 961 if this is the car you still have . prep for the grill and handels . i would scotch brite for a key then panel wipe . use a self etch or a plasto primer i would use plasto my self it is clear it has a very strong smell so mask up make sure you do the edges as well and then on with the base coat colour just a nuff to cover and do not over do it you are not looking for a high build on plastic then with in 20 min of putting base on get a clear coat of lacquer let that go for 5 min and put a second coat build it up to a high gloss leave dry overnight . if you take a colour match from the car and take it to a paint shop they will scan it and should give you the right shade of the base coat and mix it and put it in a spray can for you . that is if you do not have any spraying gear . new vehicle purchase

Trim paint codes aren't identified on the car.

Didn’t someone find a Mercedes colour that was pretty close, or was that the silver grey on the inside trim panels?

to save messing with paint go on to powerfuluk . com and buy the grill and door handle covers with the right colour format as pawl has explained or take the old grill to a paint shop and get it matched. new vehicle purchase
