i got the duplicolor for my truck (dark shadow grey or whatever its called). it looks close enough, but from what im told its hard to get any metallic paint to look good coming from a spray can. im having a bit of a hard time getting the clear coat to shine up nicely tho.

The dulplicolor paint is close but unless you can mix your own paint, the chances of a perfect match are not good. For doing something like the grill, it will be close enough that no one will notice. You might even get lucky and get a perfect match.
