'71 Cutlass Supreme - Grille Colors?

What are the correct colors for the '71 Supreme (metal) grilles?
Older posts suggest Krylon 1403 Dull Auminum but that's no longer available, the formula was changed. Thornton SSII Argent Gray? That seems too dark.
For the black, is it gloss, semi gloss, satin?
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks!

I found this: https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums...rilles-117279/
so I'm going to try the newer Krylon Dull Aluminum and the Krylon semi-flat black.

Dull Aluminum #1614830 at Grainger

I found a Rustoleum industrial paint at Grainger that is a very close match to the older Krylon 1403. It's Rustoleum #1614830 Dull Aluminum. Here's a pic of the can.
