Interior paint help

Looking for help with a paint code or Ford's color description.

I found a factory set of pop-out rear windows for my '03 chateau. I went to the junk yard and found a set of the window surrounds that has the cut out's for the window release.


My upper sourrounds are light gray and the junk yard ones are light blue.

does anyone know of the light gray paint code or color name so that I can get a can of spray paint to match?

thanks for the help! Mike

Try going to a paint jobber that sells paint to the public ( not just body shops). They maybe able to match the upper surrounds to a spray can mix. SEM has a good line of spray can colors. If it's close but not a perfect match then paint both and reinstal. Good luck

Get the paint code (I think it is on the drivers door) and take it to an auto paint supplier. They will have color chips for the interior colors.if all they will sell is larger quantities.; try Tower Paint in Oshkosh ,Wisc. They can put it in a rattle can for you. Or buy a "PREVAIL" unit and use regular auto paint.Prime the plastic parts with a plastic primer first.
