Dash pod paint for 2006?

Does anybody have a source for paint that will match the factory dash color.
I have purchased the dash pod already. I've had it and the guages for over a month now and as of now, have not been able to find a source for this particular color.

A local "Carquest" auto parts store can mix some for me, but they want a piece of the dash to match. They won't use the paint codes, for whatever reason.

I'm tempted to see what some off the shelf color might do.

The dash appears to be a gray type color, but I have no idea what the "technical color" is.

Thanks for your assistance.
