G'day and welcome to The-T-Bar forum. I don't like your chances of finding a good colour match. I suspect you'll probably be repainting one to match.
The colour match of the painted plastic parts to the steel panel work was crap when new from the factory, let alone now after years of fading.
The problem was a factory organisational one, due to how the paint batch batching was managed at the factory, because the paint for plastic parts needs additives to make it flex it is often painted separately from a different paint batch, resulting in a poor colour match, this becomes worse with metallic and flippy colours.
Now for an unrelated matter, I suggest you have a look at our check list for new members and owners: https://www.the-t-bar.com/forum/54-how-tos/99326-a-check-list-for-new-owners

Hi where are you in the country as I have one going spare, but there is a small hole in the recess where the number plate would be, it used to house a small camera I was led to understand. G.
