Finally, finally, I spent the weekend prepping and installing the Pre98 console I purchased last year. Luckily, I still had an almost full can of original Ford Alchemy interior paint to paint and repaint the console and side pieces that fit on either side of the heater box. The Alchemy paint I was sent with my console was lighter in colour, looked blue/gray and gave a matt finish when dried. As per the pictures, you will see that the OEM Alchemy paint has the right sheen and is close match to the dashboard (digital camera makes the painted surfaces look blue not "purplish" like the OEM dash and seats). In real life, the painted parts look almost exact to the dash. By the way, the spray can I had is over 6 years old. Ford does not sell it any more.
Here are some pics.
