I got into an accident with my trunk a while ago and picked up an off-color trunk pretty cheap for $50. Regardless, the color is starting to irk me and I'm looking to re-paint it myself. The car is a 2006 galaxy grey. I've looked for Dupli-Color, but there's no exact one for the galaxy grey. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Just my opinion, but it's not gonna match well if you do it yourself. Might be close enough for you, but for me, with a real critical eye for color? Won't even be close. Anyway, good luck.

If you don't have a paint booth, the dust in the paint will irk you even more :/ Ask how I know

I did this myself and was happy with the results. Its not perfect but the color match is very good. Try these guys: Touch Up Paint and Accessories | AutomotiveTouchup

Buy a harbor freight gun and filter/water separator (clean air is IMPORTANT)[40-60]... rent a good air compressor [$50], then have a paint shop mix/color match the paint for you.

But if you can get it shot for $200 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ... you'll miss out on all the fun of DIY... careful, cause once you shoot your 1st car part, you'll be like "hmmm, that wasn't too hard, do i want the entire car a different color?" .... ask how I know ;-) ... then you'll end up buying LOTS of sandpaper and $400-500 in buffing/detailing equipment.
