Default Matching interior paint??

Doing some serious upgrading of my new hunting rig I picked up a couple weeks ago. My question is do they sell a paint to touch up a 2001 super crew dash. The last ahole used a screwdriver or something to pry open the cup holder so there is black chips in paint all around it. I'm hoping there is something to touch it up. It's the tan color. Any suggestions other than whole piece off and paint?

Does anybody know if SEM makes a paint for touching up the tan in this generation? I have done some research and I found somebody say that http://www.sears.com/sem-classic-coa...-SPM6182696308 may be a match for our tan dash. Anybody used this product??

your best bet would be to paint the whole dash that color, i know motorcraft used to make the touch-up paint for our vehicles. if im not mistaken i have a can here at work but its for the darker brown interior

Thanks Clifford. I was hoping not to pull the whole piece off for a few spots but I may have to.

SEM would be your best bet for interior trim colors. Their paints are made to match the interior trim exactly, so I'd go with them. I still need to snag a can of Dark graphite also. Just make sure you find out what your int. trim paint code is. SEM will have it; I'm sure of that.

+1 on SEM. That's some good stuff. I have a tan dash and it was a pretty close match, but not perfect.

YOu have to make sure you have the right trim color. Ford offered the tan dash in 2 colors and the name stayed the same. I have used it an it matched my tan dash perfectly, but mine is a 97.

Do you remember the code or name? At this point close would be better than how it looks! Lol
