Carats with fiberglass bumpers used a medium silver called cloud grey I think. If it isn't cloud grey, it's the lighter one, the lightest one being reserved for the alloy wheels. I believe that one was called diamond point. The paint code is easy to look up on line. The "rub strip" on Carat bumpers was painted satin black.

and to make it even more confusing, the '87-'88 wolfsburgs used a different color for the fiberglass bumpers/skirts than the '89-'91 carats. the '87-'88 wolfsburg bumper color was kinda greenish silver.. it was called Jade metallic. LN6V
