My question - did this set ever have Flat Silver grille tiles? I remember thinking
about verifying this inventory a while back, and this was the sticking point.
I couldn't reconcile the silver colors.

There is a little "glint" marking in the instructions inventory which suggests
to me this was always supposed to be a shiny piece. And it makes sense, to give
contrast with the DBG grille tiles.

The Lego site lists this as 6051422 "Silver Ink" but the instructions list 4249040,
which has THREE different BL matches, Pearl Light Grey, Flat Silver, and Metallic
Silver.

Can anyone confirm Flat Silver in this set? Maybe this is a wild goose chase
over what may turn out to be a simple change in TLG production, but I have a
feeling there are a lot of these color errors embedded into BL inventories and
PCC's.
