Tractor
NH TL-100A with Bush Hog 5045 FEL, WR Long 3rd function, LS XR4155HC w/FEL, WR Long 3rd Function.
When I started the modification of the grill guard, on my XR4046HC, I removed the GG and took it to Sherwin-Williams to get it color scanned.

SW did scan of side of the GG as well as a second scan of the back side of lower end that mounts to tractor frame, for comparison. Tractor was still pretty new and parked under roof so, scan results were identical.

Finished modifications to the grill guard, had it sand blasted, and primed with gray metal primer. Masked it off and painted the expanded metal with satin black. Re-masked and shot the LS Blue on rest.

I can't tell difference between GG and original LS Paint? YMMBD?

Thanks Rick.
I also saved this for future reference. It's a much better match than what I used when I did my GG.
