I’m trying to remove a body panel to bring into Home Depot so I can get it color matched for some house paint. Has anyone removed the door handles? Seems like the easiest painted trim piece to get off. The other candidate is gas cap cover but that doesn’t seem to come off easily.

There are posts on here on how to remove the door panels, someone removed theirs to paint the trim to match the arm rest on the door, you can search them up.

Might be easier to get a bottle of touch up paint and match to that.

Google it
My FE is Area51, and Google found it is also called KU on other Ford products.
You may be able to find the RGB mix, or the PMS (pantone matching system) #

Why not just grab the paint sample chips that look close, walk them out to your vehicle, and pick the one that is closest?

Gas filler door might be easier.

You might be able to pop the key hole cover off the door handle easily, check the manual. I know the one on my pony car does.
