Is sebring silver the color that's widely used on Grand Ams and Gran Prix's? I was strongly considering that color for my 84TA. It looks great as an accent color. I'm wondering if it would be too bright for doing my entire car though. It's between that and pewter.

As far as I know that color was used widely througout GM. I just wanted to pick a GFX color from the 2002 selection that best matched the wheels, and that's what I came up with. The picture quality sucks, so the tone isn't very accurate. But for reference it matches the GM SS/ZR1 wheels exactly.
