The pine will probably have to be stained to match. Before staining apply a light coat of clear shellac to prevent blotching. You should be able to find or make a color that will match the existing panels. Minwax makes a large selection of colors which can all be itermixed as long as you use only the oil based ones. Make a sample board and treat it the same as whats on the wall and allow to dry 24 hrs. before selecting the color. I used plastic spoons and keep a count of how many of each goes to make a custom color for a sample then I can duplicate it in larger quantities by using a soup ladle.
