yes they do look good. Dennis G told me what the correct gray color was at Springfield last year but I have forgotten. Who knows what the correct gray shade is?

I have been using rustoliom matt silver on my GT wheels, Looks great but not factory.
Don't think that the spelling is right for the paint. But close. I have pics on my photo

I have done that job a couple of times, too. It is some work, but well worth it. Looking good, Erick.
