I need to paint my a pillar gauge pod. I have the medium grey leather seats with the light grey interior. What color paint do i need. I tried to order some but was given 2 choices-- Pewter and charcoal? -Thanks:)

It should be Pewter IMHO.:o:

Thanks!

Any other opinions, is pewter what i need?

My dealer body shop painted mine and matched it perfectly, for like $40.00

Cool. My Windw sticker says : INT Medium Grey. I guess i'l go to the paint shop.

My Paint shop buddy did mine for $10, Matched perfectly..Maybe go that route Tim?

Probably pewter. IIRC, GM's charcoal looks kinda black.

Yup, charcoal is gonna be to dark.

I agree with most. The pewter should be the color out the two options you were given. Good luck.

Mine is the light or medium or whatever not dark colored gray. I used pewter and it matched very well. I think I used VHT brand paint.

Thanks guys! This helps a ton!

here ya go Tim, i had to go find it in the garage... If i had enough left I'd just send you the rest but I don't.
Do a FEW passes, don't just glob it on because it'll show through on the texture and look crappy.
Hope this helps Tim!

Not a problem Tim, Glad i still had the can!
I know what you mean about the parts catalogues, heck look at the can lid...it says dark pewter and I would NOT call my interior or that cap DARK. :D

Damn it, called summit and they said that # is discontinued? what a bunch of crap. I just ordered some duplicolor meduim grey, hope it matches.

Here check this thread... http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=65238

I think Summit has their heads in the butt because I did a search for it on google and it comes up everywhere...http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=vht+sp-984

BTW Im not trying to pick on you Tim, sorry if i came across that way... I was just trying to show you options if you did want them.

No, i didnt think that at all, summit sucks!!!!!!!!!:mad:
