What color is the insert?  I believe the early ones were a lighter color and later they were dark charcoal.

Based on his January 65 build date, It Looks like the inset should be Argent but there appears to be a fair amount of leniency with inset color on styled steel wheels.  Here's some discussion on the topic.
