Was the red painted on? If so then you'd think they'd have used what they had hanging around, that being the red #75.
Well I've got copies of all the pages for the 1978 Oldsmobile Starfire Product Description Manual that they have at the GM Heritage Center (or at least all that they have located), and unfortunately, the pages I need that have the bumper colors on them are 14A1-3 and 14A2-2 and those are both missing
. There appears to be many other missing pages as well, and I made sure to get copies of some of the Chevy/Buick/Pontiac pages that I thought might come in handy, but those two are the one's I really need, and of course, they are missing. If anyone our there has those two pages that would be amazing. What I was hoping was that someone might know a Krylon or Duplicolor spray can color that is close to original. I'm assuming that my bumper covers are faded and, as I've mentioned before, I'm a little color deficient, and it would be difficult to drag my bumper cover around to different paint shops (although now that I think about it, maybe I could just take it into the local Sherwin-Williams and see what someone behind the counter there has to say about it. I guess even if it is a faded color it would be fresh, and if I used the same color everywhere on the car no one would really know it wasn't correct, and the chance of me ever parking my car next to another one that has the correct color is very low....) I think I may have just talked myself into that one.
