Interior paint colors, help!

Ok so I thought I did proper research on the correct color to repaint several pieces of my interior trim. But Look below please:



The door entry panel is one of my originals I thought it was the color SEM 15393, but its not. The true color is the part underneath it. It is the panel that goes on the back hatch. Note its a darker shade of gray. So please someone advise me does SEM makes the same color as my bottom piece and if so what is the proper part number?? Thank you!

all these panels vary in color, the one you need looks like the thomas bus grey, 15413




thomas bus is the closest one for firebirds, presido is the one thats closest to the camaro gray

all of these paints will produce varying shades of gray, i've found that the color can be adjusted after painting if you buff it out with white car wax (if you need it lighter) or black car wax if you need it darker
