There's several answers on this one actualy. Seen it a few times and did a search when I was lookin to paint mine as well.

Two most common answers are grey and a light tan, didn't seem to be any set color from what I saw, bout I'm sure others may give you a better answer. You should be able to find either color at your FLAPS.

Myself, I opted for a grey/blue color that was used on GM motors of the same year, just thought it looked better than the rest.

2020 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk,
2005 Harley Davidson FLHTCUI

I dig all cars, old and new, whether they were hammered out of American iron, German steel, or Japanese tin cans. Being unable to appreciate them all is missing out on a world of great things.
But thats just MY opinion!
