Default Repainting Throttle Body Cover

While my Z slept for 10 months awaiting her transmission, the antifreeze in her motor ate through the gasket and did a number on the finish as shown. I sanded off the damage part of the throttle body and use a paint that I got from Lingenfelter. That fixed that but how do I match the paint on the rest of the plenum? That's the question at the moment.
