I just re-painted both of my grills for a non-hideaway head light system for a 69 GTO. I put both grills in the dishwasher for about 10 minutes to clean any dirt and grime off of them (Do not use the dry cycle). Since the original paint was not chipping off, I just sanded the entire painted surface with 600 grit sandpaper. I used silver dupli-color paint and it matched the original fairly close. For the black, I used Krylon semi-gloss and it matched exactly. If you need the paint numbers from spray cans, let me know!!
