Interior paint to match gray/charcoal
For you guys with gray/charcoal interiors, what brand and color of paint did you get to match? I'm looking for an exact brand and number/color of the paint from people who have successfully matched this color.
Is there an interior color code? If so how do I go about finding it?
Thanks.

I painted a tan center console and lower dash parts with SEM paint,sprayed it from a gun.Was very easy and was the first thing I ever sprayed.Had the local auto body shop mix it up from the code in my glove box.

So I tried both Colorbond 651 "Graphite" and Colorbond 159 "GM Very Dark Pewter". 651 was way off, it's a light-medium gray. 159 was much closer but still a tad off. It's hard to notice though. The stock body interior trim is more mismatched than this as you can see in the pics.

You can also go to local paint shops. they will mix you the exact GM color and put it in an aerosol can for you. Costs 20-40 bucks depending on color, but it will be OEM.

Anyone else know what other color to try? The very dark pewter is too light, it needs a bit of tint. It's close, but off enough to be annoying. The nearest county in CA to me that allows paint mixing for aerosols is 200 miles away. So that option is out.
