My reflector is painted as well . Just click on the "painted reflector" link in my sig. below . You can see it in a close-up by clicking on the "ST200 badges" link below also . I also have other shots of it in my pic albums , just look around while you're in there  . BTW - My rear chrome strip is painted also , maybe you'll like it & want to do yours too  .

How do you find out the car number? yes it is the same color..i think its just the pic that makes it look different...shadow or something...trust me i look at it everyday, its the same. and your cars build number should have come in the mail a few months after you bought your car..or at least mine did.

Just curious, but why didn't you have the black trim around the license plate done? It's all one piece right? I think it looks so much better with the black left in. I personally would paint it black as the cheap plastic trim has a bad habit of becoming gray. I also like the look of leaving the chrome trim along the top. Both of these set the car apart and look a heck of a lot better then all 3 painted the same color. Atleast on a silver car! The other colors don't matter... :p
