Oh No Sir, Grey or gray is a different color all together, We bees talking black here. I thought it was more medium or dark black, rather than light black. :-)

Think about it. ;-)

I always thought black was black, oh well. Mine was black too but you really can't go wrong with a semi-flat or semi-gloss black. Kryon's is a good match for Ford's body/underbody'black'. Whatever you do, don't paint the outside of the core the body color as it will show through the grille like there is a flood light on it; mine is a dark green and it looks like heck shining behind the grille.

Hey Lee, I hope that it was at least Williamsburg green, you could say that it had class that way.

I agree, I painted one of mine blue like the body with an aluminum grill. The core sticks out like a sore thumb. I'll fix it one of these days, as soon as I find some Med. Black paint

Actually, I like to think it is Green Bay Packer green. But whatever it is called, it is not holding up in the AZ sun. Hmmm, maybe I'll two-tone with Green Bay gold above the beltline.
