UPDATE:
I have determined that E408395 was not a SMPV. The silver paint was the one applied by the CHP prior to auction, and the darker gray must have been applied by a subsequent owner.
After receiving a suggestion, I checked a spot on the door inside of the jam area and lifted a section of the topcoat. The backside of that dark gray chip was silver. Although I had done a similar thing to other parts of my door which didn't show the silver, that area proves to me that the car was ALL silver at one time. So the car was not a SMPV.
That revelation is not a disappointment. I can now proceed with my plans to repaint the car without worrying about it possibly being a SMPV.
