Ok did some looking and they have a metalcast smoke color. I found someone who tried it out, it's a honda forum but hey paint is paint Anyways the stuff looks pretty good, I might give it a shot on my grill when it gets warmer.

Found somebody else who used it on his Jetta, better writeup, seems to me like the pieces he did later and clearcoated after the paint look a little better than the one he didn't clearcoat.
