I have a 2005 Suburban LT with interior color codes 921 and 922
I purchased a 2003 Yukon Denali with interior color codes 921 and 922

I want to use the wood grain console and dash bezel... but some of the non-wood grain areas are showing their age.
I used Medium Dark Pewter SEM 17163... but the color is not correct.
The SEM is much lighter than what the actual color is.

Does anyone know what the correct color to use is?

It can be the correct color code BUT, as you said, "showing their age" can make the match difficult.

It could very possibly be an I ... that still seems to lead me Medium Dark Pewter which is what I have used... It looks to me like that is the right color for all the plastics....except the trim beside the woodgrain, which is much darker

Last time I checked SEM doesn't certify any match to a GM color code or name. My codes (522, 52I) are not the same and I bought some for my cluster/radio surround, but the match wasn't all that great. See here for my results:
