The best I have heard so far in a rattle can is Marhyd Bumper Charcoal Grey (I will try some some time if I can locate it):
Marhyde 3821

Another alternative is from SEM...I do not know how good it is:
SEM dark charcoal #39153

Another one which I have tried is:
Duplicolor dark charcoal bumper paint #FB-109

The duplicolor is "close" but not perfect. Something like a Mirror housing might not look bad. I don't think it would work too well for touchups.

Yep, you probably did. It does look good on your car.

I need to get some of that too and compare all three and my NOS parts.

I have a case of the Marhyde 3821, It is the best match that I have found in a spray can. If you'd like a can, let me know!
