I had luck matching colors on roll pans and grilles using duplicolor's perfect match spray cans. I've never sprayed that big of an area with it though. The problem with spraying large panels with spray cans that contain metallics is the tiger stripping that occurs if you dont spray good even and overlapping coats. I would personally try spraying one panel at a time to avoid the dry overspray that can occur. the hardest panel would be the hood. duplicolr paints are lacquer based and dry real fast so focus more on getting a good even coats so the metallic flakes lay out even and when your finished spray some duplicolor clear lacquer on to get the gloss you want. don't spray it on in one coat , the first coat should be a light tack coat followed by two medium coats with the last one focused on getting the metallic flakes even. Some times you can pull the spray can further away to get the flakes to lay out even. Next spray the clear. You can spray it on thick (avoid runs) and wet sand and buff the dust out in a few of days. Don't spray in direct sun light, the paint will dry before it hits the car and put a dry powder spray on it. Remember to use only the same Brand products through out, enamels and lacquer dont like each other. Lacquer paint can check up on enamel because it dries so much faster.
Also I believe the paint color you'll be looking for is Dupli-Color's Perfect Match #BGM0490 Pewter
