Usually known as 'charcoal' for the carpet, dash, etc.

The ONLY place I have found for CORRECT color is from LMR
they actually have the paint mixed for FORDS, not some generic one color fits most

YES, I know it says 84-86 but it is correct for the 87-93 ford trucks as well

So you think that gray pictured is the same? I have heard it called Opal Gray as well but I cannot verify that.

Well I got the paint and it is granite and it matches. The only problem is that it does not shine like the original. I guess I am going to give LMR a chance.
