It not the point of the H3 being a different color then the glove box says, it's that paint code 928L "steath gray metallic" was never offered as a paint colour for the H3 AT ALL???

That color was offered by GM under 3-4 different names depending on which GM vehicle it came on. As long as the Paint code is the same, it will match.
Keep in mind the WA paint code (part number) and the color code used in RPO and sales literature are not the same number even though they are referencing the same color.
My '08 Hummer in Solar Flare Metallic code is also known as "Inferno Orange Metallic" on GM Camaro's, but is also referred by that Camaro paint name when searching the sight Wayne posted above when searching for hummers 2008 Hummer H3 Touch Up Paint Colors
You'll also note they have it listed on that sight in two spots by both the WA502Q # , and under the RPO # 28. Same color, different names, one under RPO #, one under actual paint code.

Quick question Wayne....
I see the rims on your H3 has the "open" spokes.
Mine has the solid ones.
Was one an upgrade over the other or did you have a choice between the two for the same price when dealer purchased? (I think I just hijacked my own thread...?)

The solid spoke chrome 16" wheels were also factory and offered with some of the factory chrome packages.
There are also 18" factory chrome wheels which were offered on the H3X.
