Here is the email thread, read bottom to top. Note the reference to a book he's writing about the restoration.
Hi Arlie,
Thanks, I'll post this in an upcoming Questions segment and make the change to the text for the
upcoming book on Project Mustang.
I had a NOS grille for a '68 and decided the color was semi gloss black. I guess over almost 40 years the color had bleached out.

Hi Larry,
Poly Charcoal is the correct color for the grille, foglight post, and bottom panel. It's Ditzler 32930.
I find it easier to use the 65-67 styled steel wheel paint (same color),
in spray cans, supplied by any of the Mustang supply houses.
Here is the page from John's Mustangs
65-67 C5ZR-SSWP-A Correct Charcoal Metallic Color ea. $9.95

Please let me know if I can answer any other questions.

Hi Arlie,
Thanks for the info on the grille color. Do you know of a source for the color code on the grille? The only one my listing provides is a poly charcoal and I'm pretty sure the color is not metallic (poly).
