Paint match for headlight bezel & grille?

Anybody know a good rattle-can match for the silver paint? Mine is looking old and I want to redo it and clear coat it. The store down the hill from stocks Duplicolour auto paint, but unsure of which shade I need!

I used Duplicolor FM-149 Argent Silver but I am not sure it is still available. They have changed their numbering scheme I'm told.

SUM-SP7100 Argent silver from Summit racing is what I used on my grille and buckets. Then I Dupli color cleared them. I'm happy with results

I used silver and flat black on my 87 GMC and on the grille on my 98 F150. Looked like new and just a little trouble taping and sanding. I didn't really try to match anything specific. GTT

Thanks everyone. I'll head down to Can. Tire and pick up some Argent Silver and it'll be tomorrow's project!
