Front Grill on a GMC
Hi I have a base model regular cab 95 GMC K1500 4X4 that I want to repaint the grill. Its a one piece grill does anyone know what the paint codes would be. Its like a medium gray color on the main part then a darker gray in center part of the grill. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Re: Front Grill on a GMC
I don't know the correct code, but my '95 Cheyenne Grille was all one color. I had used Rustoleum charcoal on my wheels so I used that on the grille. It is a bit darker than original but not so much that it looks obviously off. Personally, I think it looks better

Re: Front Grill on a GMC
I just painted my 97 GMC Sierra front grill. I used https://www.automotivetouchup.com/ & bought 1 spray can of their paint & it covered the whole grill surround. Perfect color match. I've used them for years. I didn't use their clear coat spray, so I used Dupli-color gloss spray (2 coats) Sorry for the sideview pic...

Re: Front Grill on a GMC
We’re these grills done in GM Dark Argent Metallic?

Re: Front Grill on a GMC
I hate to give away my secrets but I'll make an exception. I have a place in my small town where I get it. I could get the code, but the color is called Charcoal in the "Metallic" line marketed by Rustoleum, at Walmart . I first did my wheels hoping to match the grille. I knew it would be slightly darker but without looking so different from original. I like it better. I painted it 2-3 years ago and it's holding up well. I don't think I used clear. I put new markers on at that time.
