Default 94 Cx 3DR Front Foglight Grille Question

Hello Honda-Tech,

I have a 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback and I have no foglights on it. I'm curious as to what paint to use, to paint the fog light grills (which are colored Aztec Green), the same color of the grille colored black in the middle. I'm confused as to what can of paint to use, is it a flat black, a semi-gloss black, or a gloss black. If anyone can help me out i'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Er what? What finish are you trying to get? You ask about matching a grey but are using black? Your grey grill is probably faded so it won't match anyway. If you don't know we sure can't help you. If it's not shiny then it's more than likely a matte finish. This isn't a tech question?

Paint all of them which ever finish floats your boat. Then they'll all match regardless.

The middle grill is bare. 92-93 hatchbacks and 93 coupes had black/bare foglight caves. 94-95s were color matched.

Maybe you can try sanding the paint off.
