The color is a "putty" in the gray range, but you could get a match at Lowes or Home Depot. You will want an enamel that (after sanding the surface) may require 2 coats. It takes 2 days to dry well between coats, and wait a week before tightening the case on with screws. Car repair shops can do a very nice job (haven't tried an A2000, just A4000's) with a highly durable coat.
