What's the paint code/color for a stock '95-'97 grille?

[outatime88]

Does anyone know what the paint code or color is supposed to be for the '95-'97 ranger grille is? I want to repaint mine. Looks like a light/medium graphite or titanium color like in the picture:

I just found a can of rust oleum spray paint in a color that was close and called it good. turned out pretty decent.

That looks really close! What is the rust-oleum paint type/color? Or do you have a picture of the paint can?

I have the can somewhere.... I painted it about 12 years ago, then when it faded again I repainted it with the same can 2 years ago... so you might have to do some searching...
I thought the "hammered" texture would look cool, but it never worked. it did go on nice and smooth, just not the texture. maybe because it was going on plastic instead of metal, I dunno. but even still it came out pretty good.

That's interesting that it's supposed to be a hammered finish. From your pic that's exactly what I'm looking for so I'll see if I can find the same can. Is there maybe a part number on the can I could use to look it up? I think it might be called dark bronze.
