Well Bill, this color did match exactly the original either, but I'm just
not a purist about exact matches on color. This paint is just a little
lighter and maybe a little less blue that the original gray was. Still, I
like it, and I figure if I ever sell it and someone doesn't like the color,
they can just repaint it pink for all I care!
