Default A-pillar color match?

I was thinking about picking up a triple gauge A-pillar, but the one I found is black. My 99 t/a has the charcoal grey interior, would I be able to paint it to match? If so, where can I get a matching color?

I plan on eventually wrapping everything, but thats way down the road...just looking for options until then.

Thanks

I was looking at paints the other day at NAPA of all places. This one has an auto-body section and they punched up the year and were able to get the code for the interior matching colors. If NAPA can make a color matched interior paint, surely a good paint shop can too! Good luck...and that pillar with the gauges is going to probably be the hardest thing anyone on this board has ever wrapped. I wouldn't even want to try.

Option B:
Get SEM Vinyl Dye in Satin Black and spray your dash and pillars at the same time. They will match, and it will look really good.

I searched alot on interior dye/paint last night. I think I'll be doing SEM Satin in the *hopefully* near future.
