Color code for F16 M sport rear valance?

As if 2019 can't get any worse..So after a long day at work I come back to my car only to find that someone has hit my rear bumper. There's some noticeable white scuffs on the grayish valance part of the bumper. I called bmw and they had no idea if it came originally unpainted or if it was painted they had no idea what color code it was. Figured I'd use some touch up paint until I decide to repaint it for 600$

Lol I see where you are going with this . Only issue is even with the carbon fiber diffuser it's still just a addon piece to the valance. Diffuser will look great but the white scuffs will still be there on the grey part. I guess I have no option but to repaint the whole valance

Can you post a pic?

Also, if it is paint transfer/scuff, you probably can remove it with something like WD-40 and a cloth.
