    I wouldn't paint a grill unless you are painting it the same color that it's molded in. It inevitably chips off and exposes what's underneath.

    I believe Craig had the best suggestion for color, but in my experience, Eastwood products are terrible. I would look for that color in a different brand. Maybe try DupliColor.

    I used the Ford argent paint on my 72 and 74 mavericks, still can be found and its a perfect match.
