Greetings, everyone! I was wondering if anyone has any idea where I could obtain the information regarding the gloss black finish on various parts of the vehicle, such as the mirror pods, bottom section of the rear door, top of the rear bumper, and more. Thank you!

Good day. EX is the Kia paint code for green, and mine is experience green, just like yours.
I am seeking the black gloss that is located on the lower part of the rear bumper and mirror pods.

I misunderstood the post and accidentally uploaded the incorrect information, as I mentioned before. Maybe the dealer's parts department sells touch-up paints with the code imprinted on them; I don't know what the code is.

If you happen to already have that colour on your vehicle, you may find the KIA paint code for it on a label that should be located on the passenger door jamb.

One colour stands out, whereas the other doesn't

On mine, you can see both the primary and accent colours provided. It appears as Code WK, which I take to be the colour of my black bumpers and other trim pieces.

I had no idea that "Trim: WK" may be referring to the black painted areas; mine is, too.

The term "trim" usually makes me think of wall coverings, right?
