Painting aluminum/silver gear selector trim

The aluminum/silver piece of trim that goes around the trans gear shifter is peeling and chipped in a few places so I want to sand it and repaint it so does anyone know what the paint code is for it or does anyone know of a spray paint that is close to the color?

Just paint it whatever color you want, the silver doesnt match anything anyways. Some people color match it to the body color and some paint it to match the black on the center console.

I really wish Honda would sell that part individually. Instead they couple it with the entire freaking shifter.

It matches the whole interior trim

I'm sure any ol silver paint will do. Try a sparkle silver wheel paint, maybe that will give it the aluminum look.
