Default What "Brand" spray paint to trust for OEM quality Eiger Gray?
I'm in the process of acquiring the trim piece where ladder/gearbox attaches and will need to spray paint (Color Code: 1DF/LRA/2409) Eiger Gray.
Any paint "brand" suggestions for best quality to OEM Eiger Gray?

I used these when I was installing the lunch box and ladder. The color match for my Tasman Blue was perfect.

Get this - they mix it and it is actually Eiger grey. Expensive, but worth it https://www.paintscratch.com/cgi-bin/order-form.cgi

I'm acquiring a third party black plastic trim with the holes in place. If that turns out to be no good then I'll order the part from Land Rover. My problem is that my truck is matte wrapped so I'd have to wrap it to match the body. Gloss black plastic will at least natively match the window trim.

Where are you acquiring the third party black trim with predrilled holes? I was about to purchase from LR and if I could find one predrilled that would be even better.
