Anyone know if I can buy color matching paint for the interior pillar mount for my tuner at the parts stores?

My last source that painted my last pillar is no longer in business.

I have found in my neck of the woods that parts stores no longer stock spray bombs. When I color matched my A pillar I went to the local Sherwin Williams paint store(Autobody). To have them mix a can of RPO paint was VERY cost prohibitive; I ended up "matching" the paint to some colors they keep in stock.
 
What color are you needing? I went to my local Carquest and got a rattlecan formulated for plastic that was very close to stock colors. Yep, I said colors. My pickup has several shades of gray in the plastic pieces and the rattlecan seemed to be right in there with all the other gray colors I have. It was SEM Color coat #15393 Medium gray.

I just closely matched whatever the local guys had in stock. My buddy found a source (I can't remember the name) online that sold spray cans with the factory RPO code colors. He paint matched a ton of stuff in his Mustang interior and you could not tell the difference in colors.
 
I had it mixed as well and yes the price was nuts . Sem used to make it. Last time I had it mixed it was 60$ for a pint of PPG and the guy sucked who mixed it. I sprayed it with a detail gun.
 
They come in black only AFAIK, my local body guy painted mine for $25.
 
There is a company named Diesel Manor that sells rattle cans of paint. This is where I got the paint to paint my pillar.

What color is your interior?
