I found a PERFECT match for my 91 gray (light and dark) interior.  Shoe, Spray Paint.  It is made
to flex and is a PERFECT colour match (for my gray).  The brand is Maji (or some such) and if you
ask your shoe repair guy, s/he will have a full colour chart from which to order.  Over 50 colours
I'd guess.  Take a cabinet door in with you to match the colour.  Then order the paint.

Re the metal interior trim parts, I sanded,  rust converted, primed and spray painted.  This paint
has held tight for 5 years now, through HEAT and COLD. Head-rests too.

Also if you want all of it to match, you might consider spraying ALL of the interior trim with
whatever paint you buy, and that way it will all match :-)  M
