I'm in the process of an avionics upgrade and want to change the color of my panel.  I've always liked the factory color used in the Ovation/Bravo GX and Acclaims from the late 2000s.  Does anyone happen to know the exact color code or name?  Sample photo below for reference (not my plane).

Not sure but @gsxrpilot has a light colored panel near that color. 

Yes I do. But I couldn't tell you what the color is. We just kept mixing until we got it close to what I wanted.

Thanks, I feel like it’s a very fine line before it gets too white but yours looks good.

Any powder coating shop will have something close.  You do want to powder coat the panel and you want to use a supplier where you know both the supplier and color so you can get more if you need it.  You also will want to silkscreen the panel with any labels, required placard info, etc...
