Stuart,

I'm not sure who you are asking that question to, but here's one answer. A good auto paint shop can scan a part and give you a rattle can of matching color in any finish you want.

Also, I am having a stove front panel powder coated to match the original, and if I ever get it back from the powder coated I will let you know what brown he used. I think the grey color is easier to find.

Jim
