    Hello All,
    Does anybody know what creme color was available on the grills? Does this creme color have a number, was it a special mix?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    I thought the 50 grills were body color (outer part of the grille bars body color, inner part silver-grey) or chrome.

    If you hunt around in http://autocolorlibrary.com you'll find charts for most years.

    If you have discovered the color you are looking for is waldorf white, I hunted high and low for the color, and ended up just using plain white on my inner bars. But since then, another poster gave me a color code he says is waldorf white. Here it is: DCC Concept 90096, which will read out as Plaza White, used on 1977 Subarus. I have no idea if it is actually correct waldorf white. But then I have no idea what a correct waldorf white should look like.
