i'm going to paint my radio bezel this weekend. its in primer right now and needs some paint to finish it off. yes, i finally finished molding my touchscreen to the bezel.

what brand spray can matches our black interiors perfectly or as close as possible?

thanks for the help
 
i had the black/tan (hate the tan!!) and used Duplicolor Interior & Vinyl spray that i got from Advance--i'd say it's pretty damned close (as close to 100% as you can get). see for yourself:

as you guessed, the top of the dash and door panel is factory black, the bottom *was tan until i hit it w/ a few coats of the afore-mentioned paint.

make sure you prep well (i cleaned the pieces w/ 3M dirt, wax, grease remover that was near the Duplicolor paint) and spray mutliple, thin coats.
 
50resto.com carries some stuff that matches 100%. I used it and I like it.

BUT there are two different kinds. a Vinyl, and a laquer. It says you are supposed to use the vinyl on softer plastics, and the laquer on harder plastics.

BUT the laquer does not match 100%. It has a blue tint to it that is VERy noticable under sunlight.

I would prime it and paint it with the vinyl. I painted a hard piece with it and its holding up fine. And the shine matches perfect too.

Let me find a link.

EDIT: Get teh 90-94 Black
