May want a second opinion on this change, but in the sets I parted out the slopes are the exact same hue as the Metallic Silver pin joiners forming the front fender.

It is not about the hue. It is whether the plastic has a metallic silver coating
or not. If it does, then it is Metallic Silver. If it does not, then it is Flat
Silver. Check underneath the parts to see if it looks like a coating has been
sprayed onto a DBG piece. If so, Metallic Silver it is.

Cheers,
Randy

Hello,
I believe you may be right as this item does have a new Part Color Code in the
instructions. It would be great if someone else could confirm the color if you
aren't quite sure. (I am still waiting for my copy to arrive.)

Thank you!
Jen
