Rattle can DSG?

Anyone know if there is a rattle can spray paint that is close in color to the '04-'08 Dark Shadow Grey?

I was thinking about rattle-canning my FX4 fender flares, just to see how they come out. They are all chalky now. And before I round file them and spend 4 bills on Bushwackers I thought I would just try it out as a quick fix, for now??

IMO it's alot of work taking them off and sanding them smooth, but it only takes times.

Thanks for the link. I think I might try the handles and the flares now!

DIY PTM DSG Handles (pics) check in this thread he uses dupli color and i think its a pretty close match...i was thinking about doing this myself
I was thinking of some black side steps too. They would be easy to paint as well. I already have all DSG FX2 front end on my FX4 (since the accident)
Even my FX2 grille is DSG.

Just like the FX2. But I doubt they are cheap from Ford. Better to do black aftermarket and paint or powdercoat.
