SEM interior paint close to classy grey?

Cant find anything online about SEM's colors. Anyone know if they carry a interior paint that matches up with the classy grey interior for 97's?

The 97's had Quartz Grey. The 98-99's had Classy Grey. I don't know of any spay cans that come in that specific color. It's a light grey so you might be able to find something similar.

I noticed you did the 98-99 console swap. I dont know if it was your pics or if the grey was darker, but how does it match up? I have the opportunity to pick up a 98 console for cheap but its the dark grey, almost black color. Thats why im looking into paint.

Does anyone know if a 94-97 Accord console is direct bolt in as the CL's? They have a light grey interior that might be pretty close.

You can see the difference in the photos I've posted, but when you're actually sitting in the car, it blends together nicely. The only place it stands out is where the console and the cup holders meet and even then you have to look for it.

The Accord console is probably compatible. I believe the USDM Accord had a black insert and the JDM Accord had woodgrain like ours. The only difference I've noticed is that the cigarette lighter and ash tray are flipped since they're right hand drive.

I will still use the CL wood trim, just wanted to try the Accord console part that the trim fits into. The Accord ones are dirt cheap compared to the CL's. Im kinda stuck on how i should go about it. I want to do it asap so thinking about painting. Or just hold out til I come across my color at the yards. Its too hard to be paitent when you get that vision in your head of what your wanting to do. lol.

You might have to get the console from a junkyard. When I bought mine from Acura of Lynnwood, the parts guy said it was the last one in the country. I'm not sure if there's any truth to that though.

Thanks starboy. Ive seen the color chart. I was just looking for some first hand knowledge of using a particular color to match up to our interiors. Dont wanna have to buy the 3 greys that look simular to find out.

The consoles at a local junk yard but im just trying to save a lil money with the accord piece. Figure id grab just the wood trim from the cl and the console from the accord and hope it all fits.
