Its not the silver paint thats hard to duplicate, its the white plastic UNDER the silver paint that shows through.

Repos use black plastic originals have white plastic under the silver paint.

PPG DQE-8568 is very close to GM Argent Silver. BCD.

Just curious, How are the repo silver grilles made? Are they molded in silver?

Does anyone have an OLD GM parts book with this grille still in it? If so, could you shoot me a pic of the page part #3957044 that shows this grille? I would like to add it to the auction. Thanks in advance.

Correct me if I am wrong: The silver grills were factory installed only on the black cars, RS and standard. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I saw an NOS RS silver grill on ebay about 2 years ago.

I think all the standard grills were silver. All the RS grills were black EXCEPT for the black RS cars which got a silver RS grill.

If I am wrong, no doubt someone will tell me.

69 Z's/COPO's/Yenko's/Sport Coupes - No matter what factory color, they all got the argent silver grills.
RS's - All of them were black, unless the Camaro was painted Tuxedo Black, and then the argent silver grill was installed.
SS's - all received black grills.

Every NON RS and NOS SS 1969 Camaro recieved a SILVER grille.
