I recently did a grill conversion on our RS, and I had the valance painted MB493, as specified on the label. The painted valance was not even close.
Our van started life as a white cargo van, before RT did the RV conversion. RT resprayed the van 'desert', apparently MB 493.
The body shop ended up using a prophet paint analyzer to close in on a matching color.
Hard to know exactly who got it wrong, but maybe don't rely solely on the code on the label.
