Default Armour interior color

Been working on this for a little while, and I think I finally found a local and reasonable solution. Been looking for an armour color (XLT only) spray paint to work on a few interior projects. Found this at my local Advanced Auto Parts. To my "calibrated" eye is about 90%-95% match. Anyway hope this helps others looking.

Top is the armour, bottom is the spray paint. Hard to get a good pic, but looks really close!

All of the things you list are that color on my truck. Do the xlts not have that?

Nope, they're black. Except the back trim on console, did a swap from an XL (different story). Lariat trim color is not armour, it's a lighter silver. Ford doesn't make these parts in armour color (XLT).

Better pic of the color match with the spray paint. Shown with a satin 2k clear coat finish.

Close enough for me. How well do you think it'll hold up on the wheel trim?

I put 5 coats of clear in it so it should be fine.
