Default Paint Code for (Z06) Red Fuel Rail Covers?

I am looking to paint some engine compartment items. I would like to match the red fuel rail covers. Does anyone have a paint code to match this red?

Also looking to match the crinkle finish. Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Speed

I'm pretty sure that they are molded out of red plastic, so I think you are SOL.

I don't think that there is a paint code for the fuel rail covers. They are molded red plastic. I would imagine that the mold is the same as the black ones on non ZO6 C5. It might be easier to paint them to match what ever red you would paint the other stuff .

Just kidding, I hoped someone had color matched it to a stock GM color and had the code...oh well, I might just have to take one to the paint store.

Thanks for the reply.

The FRC red is a pigment in the plastic.
It would be very difficult to match . The krinkle finish can be duplicated with a plastic paint thats available at Home Depo .
I have paint color code's for all Corvette's since 53 if you need.
