I'm sending the grilles out to be powder coated, I'm not sure what the finish should be, what do you think?

Semi gloss. Check the engine tin thread in the main. Jeff posted the
cooresponding PC number. It should also be in here on another thread. Hope that helps |

BK -05 is what you want..I was able to sneak in under the wire.. and get the left and right outer grilles NOS/OEM before they were unobtainium.. The center grille was gone for a while.. SO I have matched them up to my tin that is BK-05.. 90% correct..I also had 4 done by the powdercoater.. re those outside grilles...Again 90%.. Our OEM's on the car have U/V faded.. so they look more like a satin/flat black.. Oh and engine heat helps in the fade... |
