Im a little confused. Did you use the antique sage pearl or Gray Pearl Metallic clearcoat?? I went to Auto Zone and the bottle I tried was Rust-oleum scratch & chip repair TY90013 / 1B2 for 2001 Toyota Camry, the same as pictured below. And no, Im not painting the front of the panels.

The ebay link (OEM paint pen from Toyota Canada) is what I used.

I also have a can of Plastikote Spray paint that is a match for the car.

As I think of it, the original Toyota OEM touch up paint in the bottle that I bought back in 2001 was always a bit lighter than the car itself. That could be that I didn't shake it enough, but I've since thrown that out.

I bought the Duplicolor bottle to try and it was pretty much an exact match. For anyone looking to purchase the touch up paint, stay away from the Rustoleum brand. Thanks again skuttduck.

Blue comes from the factory, But if you do the dash ABL and sand the top of the trim parts in the dash then you will see the Blue.
