MR BBS wheel paint code?

My gf curbed one of her wheels today on her Graphite Grey MR. Is the stock BBS wheel color the same as the paint on the car? A39? If not, what is the code for the wheels? Did a quick search but didnt see much.

I emailed BBS this question last year and BBS did not make the paint, it was a Japan decision on the color. BBS sold the wheels to Mitsu unpainted and Mitsu painted them. To this day, as far as I know, no one has been able to produce a paint code for these wheels. The Graphite Grey is close, but obviously not the same color, but in a pinch will work. I've a few tiny rock chips and you cannot tell the difference, but on a curb scrape--??? Maybe some one with contacts in Japan can find the answer?
