You used to be able to get a can of argent Ford spray paint at the dealership. I don't know if it's been discontinued or not, but it was the correct color.

Krylon's "Aluminum" colored paint is pretty darn close.  Cheap too.

I got mine at NAPA auto parts, it was Dupli-color, Pewter. Has a nice metalic finish without the bright silver finish.
