Default Color Match Key Fob

I'm looking to color match (as close as possible) my key fob
I was hoping to use vinyl and wrap it, but I don't know which wrap is closest to the Ultra White color. For anybody that has experience with different colors/wraps, which wrap would you recommend?
Worse comes to worst, I could probably just buy one of the touch-up spray paints considering that it would definitely be a color match, but I don't exactly trust my ability to spray my key and not make it look ugly

I recommend 3M 1080 vinyl. The closest would probably be gloss white but there is a small amount of flake in the paint so maybe gloss white gold sparkle would be a little closer.

Yep, I decided to get a few shades of whites of the sample vinyls from different companies, if anything people probably won't see the slight difference in color unless they *really* took a careful look at it.

Wow this is a cool idea, I'd love to have my key painted Atomic Silver.
