Paint & Body Work - What is the paint code for our pewter TA's i need to know asap

hey guys i took the lids off of my headlights on my trans am. My car is a 99 and it is pewter..i forgot to get the paint code off of the car. My car is at my storage unit so i was hoping somebody could give me the code so i can take them to school tomorrow and get the painted, i only have two days left in school so i need the code asap. THanks!

I'm pretty sure its 11U

awesome thanks

WA 382E and there is a metric shitload of alternates or (variants) to that code. If a precise color match is critical you should probably have it scanned by a shop or paint supplier.

wow there was a lot of alternates, i mixed some and it was way off way to gold....it doesnt help that my car is an arizona car. I got some color chips out and found something that is very very close, i am just painting my headlights so i think it will look good. im gonna do a test panel tomorrow to see if it matches up good. thanks for the help guys

pewter is a tuff color to match, you might want to blend the hood

ive had both my camaro fenders painted and the bumpercover twice, none of them match the rest of the car if you look close enough, love the color but its impossible to match!

yeah i just got them done today, ill probably go put them on tomorrow, it should be fairly close...its better than having rock chips in them.

Not that hard to match if you can blend the adjacent panel. If you can it works pretty well and sometimes you have to take extra steps in blending. Any painter with a reasonable amount of experience can do it with no problem. On a large panel I would not reccomend skipping the blend. But for headlight doors or trim pieces you should be ok. Good Luck

Light Pewter Metallic is undoubtedly one of the hardest colors to match especially if trying to paint an adjacent panel. Best to blend into all adjacent panels and even then it can be tough because the pewter has so much black and gold tint in it. Painter has to have air pressure just right, gun speed perfect, etc.
