If you do not want the factory color check out Rustoleum satin finish. It is between flat and gloss. Come to think of it if you wanted facory color you could probably have it mixed for satin finish.

Go to any automotive paint supplier. PPG interior paint (DIU) is just DBU basecoat with no clear. DBU is mixed with a reactive reducer so it forms a good bond and is quite durable when it cures, even with no clear coat. If you use rattle can paint, or a basecoat type paint that uses a regular (not reactive) reducer, it will not be as durable, and it will scratch very easily.
