Default Shift Indicator

The center console on my 96 LT-1 is in the process of self destructing. Among the damage is the tray that the shift select indicator arrow slides back and forth in. The orange paint is starting to rub off.

If I can find another console I am going to have to repaint the indicator. Does anyone know what kind of paint and what shade orange?

Also, does anyone have a console they would like to sell?

- my grandson had this "glow-orange" spray from when he was building model rockets. i used it on my 85 - perfect! painting a shift indicator isn't rocket science -
