Anyway, it's Holt's Dupli-Color, colour code DSH84, colour name is "Tunsten (Tungsten?) Pearl Metallic". I think the pearl factor might be a little shimmery, but the colour and metallic are good, so maybe you could get the colour made up at your local prestige auto bodyworks. I say prestige, as usually the top-end places have the best guys for colour matching. You could get them to make you up a non-pearl in the same colour in a can. Anyway the pearl might no be a problem for your job, as it's not too bad, just me being fussy.

Ford and Mazda both make tungsten gray metallic spay paint available on most automotive websites...runs about $12 bucks a can...8oz I believe...would take 2 cans to properly paint an M90...I would add a couple coats of clear on top of that for an extra hard finish... :-D...it may be difficult to perfectly match the paint because you have to take into account the fading that occurs over the years...just my 2 cents...

how do you paint the m90 with all the lettering? i can't see it going well
you're right satchfan. painting an M90 wouldn't go well. :sadno: all the lettering would be destroyed. :thumbsdown: how many M90 owners would even have the skill to lay down a proper paint job?
