Yup, Ford Graphite Grey is the closest match. Funnily enough, I recently painted the fork bottoms on the new forks in that colour.

that'll do the job. when i did mine, i was a silly bollox and used halfrods rattle can ford graphite silver and some simonez lacquer. they didnt mix well and made a balls of it. so stick with like with like is my advice.
