Anybody know the part number for these rubber trunk lid stops or bumpers? See all the pictures. There are four of them total in my trunk lid. 2 on each bottom corner closest to cabin, one above driver side bumper stop and one on driver side under rear lip.

I ordered some from MB Portland via their website portal as mine were less than ideal. Very cheap. SINCE we are on the trunk lid subject; see in the picture what a horrible job the painters did on over spray when they re-painted my silver car?
I wish to have the exposed "black" repainted on my lid where they over shot. The painters only gave me a few mm of overage with the silver but I'm inclined to tape it off myself and bring the lid in just to have them repaint the undercoat. How can I find the OEM paint code for the undercoat and is it year specific? Is it an e-coat? Can I buy the paint myself and provide? It sure is not a black but almost a dull grey black. All help is appreciated. Thank you.
 
There has been some discussion about the color of the trunk/spare tire area recently which I believe is the same as the underside of the trunk lid. You may find it with a search. I repainted the underside of two trunk lids recently and found Rust-oleum 7798 semi gloss black to be a perfect match. One lid was a 92 my, the other a 95 my. The original color and semi gloss was still present underneath the insulating liners. They were identical. Only the exposed edges were faded.
