Anyone know the paint code for the gray/silver painted color for the wheels? I want to paint the center caps to match but haven't been able to track down a code :nono:
 
Haven't updated this thread for a little while but couple things are new:

Got the grey nnbs tahoes mounted

Polished is soooo much better. I've actually never seen grey ones before. Are those OEM?
 
Starting to get to some of my to-do list for this thing.

Hoping to get the bumper cap done tomorrow but I'm going to try and find a used smoothed/painted one if I can to save some prep time. Also debating the D-pilar, it will be done with a fresh coat of black if I don't decide to cm.
 
Maybe down the road I'll do an 06/07 HD front end on it but it's definitely not going to happen anytime in the near future.
 
How hard was it to cm your mirror caps? I've been thinking about trying it with the duplicolor perfect match paint

Looks great came a long way.

I did it on my nbs not not too hard but they never looked shiny. So I had them professionally done after.
 
I have used the duplicolor stuff in the past and not had good luck. The local Napa has some really good products that have worked well on my goalie mask so I figured it would be fine for my Tahoe since its doesn't have pucks fired at it. Hopefully it turns out well once the clear goes on.
