If you still looking, this is not an easy one ... a browse on this place
https://paintref.com/index2.shtml
gives Pewter Grey as "659 LAL" but also mentions it morphed into "Bonatti Grey" in later years.
So starts the confusion, elsewhere
https://landrovertouchuppaint.com/land-rov...h-up-paint
is listed as MUQ | BLVC1351
but to me looks too clear (light)

If you had a VIN number for a Tomb Raider you could run it in the microcat and see if you get lucky, otherwise, I have been a few times in a situation if which you could "simulate" a color and get close to it, depends on the skill - and patience - of your paintshop guy ....

You do not need a paint code, as any reputable paint supplier should use a paint spectrophotometer to match colours correctly. Just take the wheel along, and they will mix and match the colour. They will even use a compound to clean the colour up before using the device. I have even used this service for shaker cans to use on old paint repairs, and the colour matches exactly. For those who like Welsh Mountains and narrow boats have a look at my videos and photos at..
