Paint color Grille
Hi, I have new grilles, and headlight housings. Installed them a few years ago {see my pics}. I need to get some paint on them, and I started looking up what colors everything is supposed to be. But that is why I'm here. I found nothing looking thru my resources, and the internet told me a 1972 Olds Cutlass Supreme is either dull aluminum, or black. Could this be all? I know someone here has the more satisfactory answers.... thanks

Here are some pics of my 71 grilles after I painted them with Krylon Dull Aluminum.

I restored my '72 Supreme grilles a few years ago, and it wasn't too labor intensive prepping them, as they were pretty smooth to begin with. I had a local paint shop match the color and load it into several spray cans. I was restoring tail light lenses at the time and used it on those as well. For the headlight surrounds, I just used a nice flat black. Came out great.

I just picked up three cans from O'Reillys a week or so ago. They should be able to order it. It took less then 24 hours to get it.
