After exhausting a search for a paint code for the SS rims to no avail. I decided to conquer the quest myself. After going through five spray cans of experimental mixes I finally came up with a near perfect match. (To my eyes anyway). If your interested PM me and I will give you the DuPont chroma base mix in grams for a spray paint can which you can get at most good auto part paint stores that mix paint. I'm in the process of restoring my rims as we speak. John

I experienced the same frustration so I did the same thing! Check out my post from several years ago http://www.montecarloss.com/community/ub...3690#Post923690You're right. There is no paint code for the correct shade gray with the correct percentage of gloss. It's a lot of work but well worth the results.
Family first, car hobby second makes for slow progress but memorable experiences.
