Default need help with paint color

Ok guys I have a 2005 LS and I am having a really hard time finding the right color for it. Attached is the pic of my service sticker on the door containing the color code. Now this car is not the common ultra silver found on most montys. At napa they punched in the paint code and it came up as tarnished silver but when they look up the year of the car it comes up with galaxy silver but states its only used for the bumpers. Now my car is not 2 toned. This is a very difficult color to find. Can anyone help me with this?

code WA910L is a very common color for impalas and montes, mine is also on 05 with 910L . it comes up for bumpers in the paint manager but that can be ignored as its for body and bumpers, the only thing that will differ and you dont wanna spray is engine bay. if you wanna make for sure, take it to a gm dealership and hand them the vin code... this can also be done by calling thier parts department

i have painted this specific color many many many times and usually comes out to a good easy match.... fyi the most commen mix will be NO1.

there will be a few varients for it, both for the face and flop. visit a local body shop and have them punch it in their paint manager system and then pul lthe color chips for it so they can match the proper varient with a sun gun


a varient just means small changes to the color. (L)=lighter face, (D)=darker face, (A/L) alternate lighter which mens the flop of the color will be lighter not the face (A/D)= darker paint flop, (K) courser (metalics), (Y)=yellower and so on


also i believe galaxy silver is wa519f.. you can tell the dealer or whoever to punch in a % symbol instead of the WA for 519f. i remember my paint rep from PPG telling me there was an issue getting that color to read properly unless you used the % symbol on the paint manager system.. also
