What Color? Headlight Buckets

I am going to start body work on my car soon and am gathering some paint color details. I have the color code for the arctic white (going back stock) but need the color code for the black headlight buckets. Anyone got it?

Do a search in the History forum and you might find the exact code, but it can be replicated with a satin black. It was not gloss, so do not go that route.

Well I see only mention of satin black; so the hunt continues. The only color code reference I see is one for W20A-848 but I can't seem to confirm.
