Paint ? - for the SVO experts.

I'm sure this was probably covered before but could not find it . What is the correct shade of paint for the window trim ,rear spoiler & the trim on the bumper covers . Some putz painted mine gloss black . They look terrible . I know SEM makes a nice aerosol but not sure if they make the right shade . Omni-Pak has the supposed right color but it is in Lacquer which would lift the old paint underneath . The Omni-Pak color is charcoal black which does not seem right . I bought an '86 5.0 LX brand new and remember it being a dark grey .
What started out as a do nothing but drive car is changing rapidly . Just a little detail work ( i hope) .........

The spoiler should be textured and a bit dull almost like primer. The trim is none textured. I believe the SEMS is a good match but I'll leave that comment to someone who knows more on it.

I just got some Gray trim paint from Late Model Resto Supply. I plan on painting some of my trim next weekend. I'll post how close of a match it is.

That's what i bought , but won't use it .It's lacquer and would lift the paint underneath. Tried it on a used 5.0 bumper cover i had ,it lifted in a few spots .
