This could be a species of Stereum (if the underside is smooth) or a Trametes (if the underside has tiny pores). If a Stereum, then Stereum hirsutum is likely given the colouring and what looks to be a hairy upper surface. If Trametes, then Trametes versicolor.

On the look and feel I would say this is Trametes versicolor.
