what is the correct paint color of the grille that protects the AC coil bottom front

front condenser grills are satin black, but you can paint it whatever color or shine you want

an epoxy or powder coat will last longer

Excellent thought.

I loaded "Powder coat" into yahoo local for your location and you have plenty to choose from.

I would pull off a few heavy items under your car - Nose bar, pan under steering rack, condenser grill and take them to the place that is biased towards heavy vs boutique work (if cost conscious).

A boutique place though may have a better choice of black shades but for where it's going, no matter really.

Powder coating is surprisingly inexpensive for what you get.

Thanks gents.
I just started this ground up resto, & have a pile of such parts to freshen up & wanted to be close color wise

I have a complete PC set up in the shop & plan to sandblast and powder coat everything that fits in my oven.


I will say that this is my first European car adventure....interesting so far
