heres an idea. how about painting the oem bezel AND you new part the same way with the same paint. that way it will match perfectly.

also i have used the sem texture paint recently on a screen console i made. it took me about 3 tries to get it the way i wanted. what i ended up doing was to paint 3 coats of the texture spraying about 10" away from the piece 15 minutes apart. then sand with 400g paper lightly just getting the crusty grit off. you can almost see the grain of what you will end with now. wipe off with a tack cloth and then spray with your top coat.

good thing about this is that if you don't like that way it came out you can just sand it off and do it over. or...just practice on a scrap board. hope this helps
