Best thing to do it take it to a body shop and have them match the paint, put it in a spray can or have them paint it for you. Its what I'm planning to do for the parts I painted.

Or you could go to you local Chevy dealer and order some 11U (Light Pewter Metallic) spray paint. That's what I did. The cans are only about 8 ounces or so. If you're planning on doing a lot order a couple of cans. I think they costed me about $8-9 each.
