Joe, it is a factory color so you can go through a paint chip book at your local suppier and find the color.My paint is American Finishes SC-423-GR and on the label it he wrote gunmetal metallic gray.Dupont has a hot hues line of paint with this color That is awesome just to pricey for my first paint job.My cost for the paint and clear was $220 and that was for 2 gal of base coat and clear it is all the other suppies that add up quickly that makes painting so expensive.The image is of the dupont color.
As far as the bumpers they are good quality ,but the front one peeled friday when i polished it.Classic parts said to just bring it back.Good thing i live close I would hate to reship a bumper.They are made by tri-plus and carry a 5 year warranty.
Hope all this helps.

They fit suprizingly well.They look decent the passenger side might need a little work around the fuel door,other than that i had to drill one hole for one of the rear cross sill bolts.I am happy with them.The gas doors are not nearly as nice though,I will probably hit a salvage yard and find a couple good ones.

I was back at Classic Parts to day and they told me they are tri-plus,but there is no labeling on the panels or boxes to verify that though.

suicide 63 · 10-15-2008, 07:43 PM
