I've POR15 painted and added a cOat of flat black. Now what Olof does it need to be? The banana wrap is a brown or smoke grey color. Click image for larger version

I just finished reworking my front end and ended up taking the lid to the storage into Sherman Williams and had them color match the gray. I'd say it's about a perfect match. When I get home I'll post a few pics. I bought 2 quarts and only needed one, if you like the color I can see about putting it in the mail for a reasonable amount...

This is the Oil base I picked up for mine. PM me if your interested. I used about 3/4 of my first quart, brushed edges and rolled with fine nap on the rest.
It ran me $23/quart, figure about $25 incl. shipping sounds fair if you wanna give it a try.

Below is a pic that is the new paint on the right of the sealant line and the old banana wrap color on the left.



Just dont do what I did and leave the tape on too long after the paint sets. Now I gotta break out the exacto knife and clean up the mess!! :-)
