Hitch paint colors

I want to re paint my hitch on our 2009 Classic. I went to Airstream of Scottsdale to purchase two cans of paint. Not at $25.00 each. I think AS does not want to sale paint. So has any one re painted their AS hitch and what color best matched and brand of paint??

Thanks that’s more like it $3.99 vs $25.00 a can. Maybe AS does not want to sale paint, and that’s why they want $25.00 a can.

I used the same paint/color as GMFL. Great results and the color is only off slightly - not enough for me to care.
