check your local area for a paint jobber or give your local chevy dealer a call and i think ask for parts and give them the VIN

The WA7840 sounds correct for the silver. I would check the tag on the underside of the deck lid to be sure. It should say BC/CC U####. Make sure it says U7840. You will need to give the paint supplier the WA7840 tho because for some reason you cant use the U#### to input into the computer to mix the paint.
