Paint code to match gelcoat foot boxes?
I'm about to have the car enter the paint booth, and I still can't come up with a paint code to try to replicate the correct look of the gel coat for the foot boxes, and the gloss level as well. I know that it is a creamier white than Wimbledon White, but has anyone successfully done this? I need a paint code and what level of gloss did you use? I know that a full gloss probably won't look right. Any info on replicating the look of the original gel coat foot boxes is appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks, Rick, but the foot boxes were never supplied painted, they were in Gel coat. I need to fine someone who has taken the time to replicate this color and gloss level on their project and pick their brains.

I believe that the original footboxes were close to Refrigerator White but they yellowed over time from the engine compartment heat. There probably is no "correct" color for the footboxes if you are trying to replicate an older original.
