Grille Restoration Opinions

Hey guys, new member first post here. I just finished up a grille restoration and I'm wondering if anybody has any pictures of these grilles having a hard time finding enough online? Trying to see a factory original to compare my paint with and opinions on how it looks. Thanks in advance.

Re: Grille Restoration Opinions

Your grille is the 83-84, and it has a darker argent grey. The 85-87 uses argent silver, which is lighter. I have never had to repaint a 83-84 Grille, so I’m not positive on what the color would be called. I tried to put some close ups of the headlight buckets, to show the darker color.
Last pic is a 85-87 Grille. Those are he only ones I have repainted with the lighter Argent Silver.
