The pods for the 04-08's should be a flint grey....which would be close....

Craig, I think it's so close you could not do any better if you tried. Here's a picture of mine mounted.

If you have buds like that you won't need enemies....

Your "bud" is just jealous. Ignore him.

Give your friend a couple shots of Jack. It'll match perfect

colour match
 
I had the same issue with my 07 and not because my friends are picky but because I am. Anyway I did get an exact match done by removing one of the speaker covers which are the same colour of tan as my dash and brought it into the local hardware store. They used their colour match machine to make me a can of latex interior paint like you would use on the walls of your home. I just brushed it on and it looks great. There is one spot on it where you can see a brush mark. But its not visible from the drivers seat so I havent fixed it yet. When I get some time I will scuff sand it, get some latex paint reducer (flotrol) and repaint it with my spray gun. If I had it to do over again thats what I would have done in the first place. But I got in a rush. Hope this helps

Joe
