Want to repaint my grill and headlight bezels. Anybody know the closest match to factory that I can get from the parts store in a spray can. I mean it can be a little different but I dont want to go crazy and have a wierd shade or anything.
 
First, let me qualify this by saying that I am not a perfectionist, I used argent silver (rally wheel paint color) on my grille (75). It turned out pretty good. Good Luck!

Now with that said I am kind of a perfectionist and on my truck just to make it look better I used Rust oleum Spray Paint, Aluminum their # 7715-830

Would I do what I did again? Heck yes just be sure you get all the bugs off... :doah:

:whistle::whistle::whistle:
 
That rust-oleum is the same stuff I used and it looks awesome! It was easy, and bonds well. I did a QUICK scuff then shot it, it has been about a year and have yet to see a chip/peel. Sorry no pics.
 
I've had awesome luck with VHT's products. The wheel paint has held up well and their high-temp caliper paint is top notch.
