72 Cutlass grill paint

I have a 72 Cutlass and need to repaint the front grill. Can anyone tell me where to purchase the correct Grey color paint?

Try fusick.com

I just got air cleaner paint from them and it was a perfect match. Great people to do business with.

Everybody I know uses Krylon #1403 Dull Aluminum spray paint on the grills and tail light housings that color. It is hard to find, I ordered it from Ace Hardware online.

I took your advise and it came out great. Appreciate your input. Didn't have to much of a problem finding the paint, went to Ace and it was on the shelf.

Thanks

Cool, Glad it worked out, that paint seems to be the hands-down favorite. I did my '71 grills and they came out really nice too, look like new. I tried everywhere around here and couldn't find that stuff, guys all over have the same problem finding it.

Could you or anyone tell me the correct color the head light beisel should be on a 72 Cutlass Supreme. Mine were painted black when the grill was painted black. I painted the grill the original color which looks good but the beisel don't look right in black. I'm thinking they should also be the same color as the grill. I do have a new set of chrome beisels the I think look good but want the original look for now.
