need some help with defi pod color

where can i get spray paint locally (preferably san jose) that will have matching colors to that of the wrx sti dash? what color?

i found a website selling SEM auto paint..

"Ford Smoke M" is the color.

MED SMOKE 39163 = dash

But I'd rather just pick it up, because I wanna do it today =)

or anyone got some lying around they'll let me use? ehehe OR if anyone has some lying around i can probably buy it from you, if you aren't gonna use it anymore...

any ideas? thanks

The best match for me is the black Crincle paint at kragen. I don't have the exact name in front of me but I can get it for you later. It isn't an absolute perfect match but you can only tell if your looking for a difference.

On a side note, if you do use this paint let it dry for at least a week, then put it out in direct sunlight for a few days. If you don't, on really hot days your car will smell like paint untill you air it out. I can't guarantee that this will make the paint smell go away but it will surely help.

The SEM paint isn't an exact match but its pretty close. I used it on my pod and it looks good even though its bit more shiny than the dash itself. This stuff dries overnight and doesn't smell after in the car.
