I went through a color match thing on my gto,,,from the factory it has dark saddle dash and the metal part with the heater vents and theyre 2 different paints. The one that goes on the metal is a flat dark saddle with a little texture,,the way the factory did it. The vinyl dash is dark saddle but a little gloss. My door panels are saddle with dark saddle carpet at the bottom. The plastic kick panels are dark saddle,carpet is dark saddle ,seats are saddle,package tray dark saddle. My door panels were in good shape except a little gray at the top from sun exposure so I wanted to color just the top so I needed a very close match. I bought all the paints from different places that were supposed to be 70 GM saddle but they werent close. Legendary recommended Kolor Korrect. I called them and they have the factory formulas to go by. I did my dash and the kick panels which were exact match. The saddle on top of my door panels was about as close as i could expect,,you have to look real close to see any difference. The company was pricey but I got what I wanted.
