Is there a color match paint for our coach's I have now found out the lower drivers side panel off my 78 donor will fit on my 73 Thanks to Mark Wall

This will cover the unsightly hole under the steering column and add two more vents for the AC system But it's brown . Now the color of my dash is the dark Grey green black?, (anyone know the name? or of the paint which will work)

I found the "graygreenblack" on a SEM paint chart and it is called Sandlewood. No #, Sorry. It has to be custom mixed from a pro store and is not available in a spray can. It was $35. pint and ready to spray. It's so close to black that I'll be respraying my whole dash and side panels with the SEM Trim Black which is $34. quart or $11. spray can

Thanks Pete That helps, I will try the local custom mix shop on the new piece first, Might just have to paint it all myself, I would rather all tan though, Not the biggest fan of the sandlewood
