    I think that the "winter white" is a pretty bright white.

    Confusing that is my small collection of 55BA quarter trim and related parts. I have a pair of supposed NOS quarter trim and the paint is a cream white not bright white. But parts of both pieces are darker yet, which indicates something happened with "shelf wear". On the other hand most but not all of the used pieces I have are a pretty bright white, and maybe even are bleached from the sun.

    So I too would like to know what's right and how to get it - though having a modified car I'll do what I like. What I have does need to be painted.
