Need paint code (front bumper, the gray color)

[gpbastard]

Doe's anyone know what the color is for the lower intake on the front bumper (the gray color)? Also, mine got scratched up pretty good (it was that way when I bought it) from someone hitting a parking block. Can I just sand the scratches and repaint the gray color? Thank's for any advice you can give me on this...

you shouldnt worry about it and get it painted a different color you like. i painted mine black, looks much better than the grey

I'm going to try and paint mine flat black, I like the way it looked on Rocca's car.

Check your SPI sticker on the inner side of your trunk lid, then take the thing to a store that deals with paint. One of those will be the lower paint colour for your car.

I checked the paint code. It's U518f, indicating it's an upper color in Medium gulf blue metallic. But no mention of a lower color. The car is stock that's why I want to keep the gray in the bumper the original color. It's a 98 GP Daytona...

I should have said in the original post that the car is a stock 98 GP Daytona, that's why I want to keep the original gray or something close to it. Any recommendations on an off the shelf gray color that would work?...

Hmm, I never thought of that. I'll put that one in the maybe pile. Should I get Duplicolor at the parts store or can I use Krylon Fusion With Duplicolor clear coat over it?....

Sound's good. I might go this route. Where can you buy Krylon Fusion at? I don't remember seeing it anywhere. Thank's for your help....

I might do this with my SD bumper.

Update: I ended up taking the car to Abra autobody to have some dings taken out had them fix a couple of scrapes in the plastic body parts and they repainted the gray on the front bumper intake. Looks like new now. Thank's again for eveyone's ideas on this....
