If the BSM colours you are referencing are using the UK equivalents then Cloudburst Grey is known as Sonic Grey (paint code 1L1).

Thanks for the information! I was also confused that the "direct build" price is $65 more than buying them from the parts department.

When I had gotten mine, here are the observations that I had:

Speaking to the dealer parts department, they can get you a cheaper price than MSRP, usually either at their price, or slightly above
The MSRP may include install
- Install involves them using a paper template and mark exactly where the parts go
They claimed that they would happily provide me the template to DIY install.

I also noticed that the quality isn't the best - there is one small spot that's missing paint - a minor thing, but may bother you.
