I'm guessing you are looking for something like this.

If you are looking for something cheap, try this.

What type of car ? Do you mean the housing in the trunk ? I can't think of a "tail light bezel" that has silver paint on it ? :thinking:

Would it not be light argent?  Same as for the rallye wheels etc? (not the textured paint for center caps, shaker bubble etc.)

We should ask, what car? And what part of the taillight bezel?

Paint comparison I did years ago.

A-B-C-D shown against an original 71 grille.

71 Challenger tail panels are 2 colors. Black and silver for R/T. Dark argent and silver non R/T cars.

This is why I said the Krylon #2521. It is a very good match for the dark argent grille and tail panels on 71 NON R/T cars.

The Krylon Chrome Aluminum is a good match for the silver parts.

so autoxcuda the dull aluminum is the color to use as you suggested in your prior post

The car is not an R/T for obvious reasons, but someone has done a wonderful job of creating one.....so YES the silver sections of the blacked-out tail panel that you're looking to touch up would be a dull aluminum  :bigthumb: Great looking car :drooling:

Yes. That particular number 1403 Kylon.

Also, compared it side to side to original paint So Cal under 100k mile 1971 rallye rim. And to 1971 Demon grille...

But to clarify, the gold car I showed is a low mile original paint car. Not repainted silver.
