1972 dark green interior, panel paint - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just opened up the bag with my new plastic door panels. They are the dark green ones in a 72 Cheyenne. I've had them for a while, so returning isn't an option, but several spots have the green paint missing/flaking (I think the plastic bag or tape reacted with them, they seem like good quality).

I would like to buy some interior paint/dye to make these right. The trouble is finding the right color. I've found two options. One is called simply "dark green" and the other is "dark metallic green". They are close, but different, and either could be correct based on the swatches on my computer screen. Both are labeled as being used by GM during this year. At about $20 per can I'd prefer not to experiment. Anyone have any idea?
