Default what color am I?

before I pay $300 for shipping, I'd like to know for sure . I don't want to have half silver half gold. I plan to have it "painted" when time allows, but meanwhile I don't wanna look like a dufus. pieces are ready to ship, but I can go strip a non matching group of panels, locally.
Ls1 and I decided it was Blenheim silver, as that appears to be the only silver for '00. makes sense, but my pea sized brain works really hard to make me second guess myself. what if its gold or something....
my little "let you know" tag is not legible. I have purchased and used touch up paint and couldn't tell that way. I think I used zambizi silver and that can't be right.
how do I look it up via vin? or is that a process above my pay grade?

Don't know if this is helpful but,

Maybe you can send these folks your vin and they can tell you?

Land-Rover Touch Up Paint | Color, Code, and Directions for Land-Rover

Don't look like they used Zambezi on 2000. Blenheim silver maybe but the Blenheim silver they show in the picture on the site below almost looks like the White Gold in another picture?

let us know if you figure it out and how you figured it out as alot of these colors are close.
