Need to Resolve Paint Code Issue - Chiffon White

Trying to get my H4 trim rings painted. Can't seem to get a good paint code - even from the dealership using my VIN.

Can you guys please point me in the right direction?

Color is Chiffon White (L182) according to Dr. Colorchip's site: Select Paint Color - Dr. ColorChip: Automotive Paint Chip Repair Systems

I need to translate L182 into something that local shops can use to mix the paint.

VIN# is WP0AA0915CS121709

Thanks!

I actually just got to the bottom of it.

Turns out that DuPont has "P2" in their database which is a match for Chiffon. The guys painting my trim rings use a different supplier - and that supplier could not make sense of the codes I provided.

So if anyone else has a similar issue, search for a local DuPont paint supplier.
