None of them will match. The graphite looks too light and I think that is the darkest gray that SEM has.

These are the paint color codes for the interiors for 86 TAs,I would assume their the same for 87

Why are you painting it??? it looks OK in the pics and that is Graphite,maybe you could take those codes to a local paint shop and they might be able to mix it in a spray for you.

I tried using graphite to match my center console and it was too light. The 1982 TA console is a very dark gray. Maybe it might match the later model TAs better.

Re: 1987 Firebird T/A Gauge Cluster Bezel Color
The gauge bezels are black but the center console bottom and the lower dash panels on the 82's and maybe the 83's is a dark charcoal. I tried painting the little filler panels that are on the front of the console with the SEM graphite. I thought it would be OK but I wound up repainting them as well as the lower console with paint I had custom mixed.

Nice paint.
Please post a pic when it's installed, I'd like to see what the rings look like when back lit red.
