Stock color for 68 Roadrunner center grille? I'm not diggin the black terrible job that was done when I got the car. Anyone got some pics and where they went for some restoration services on thier grille? See mine below. Passenger side need to be replaced or think it's fixable, might be cheaper to find a replacement due to the dent on the outside of it.

You can also contact Glenn at www.gcartrim.com. He specializes in plastic chroming resto but he use to do some of the best grille resto I've seen. His custom argent mixes were right on the money (color, texture & flake-wise). I've heard he still does it behind the scenes.
