LotusOne letter separates Zinc Grey S503 from Shadow Grey Metallic M503 in AutomotiveTouchup’s Emira table. Lotus names both paints in its July 2023 body palette, so the similar numbers should not collapse them into one entry. Keeping the letter with the digits is the practical distinction when looking up this gray.
