Paint and paint colors?

Hey y'all, do not want to sound silly when I ask these questions, but I hope I can get some answers. I just got my FIRST Benz last week, a 1981 300SD, bought it from my mechanic who was VERY tired of working on my 84 Eldorado. (he usually works exclusively on Mercedes and BMW's) So far I LOVE IT! 1st question....The color is dark gray. All of the paint looks really good and shiney on the whole car except for the bumpers and the lower mouldings. Is the normal color of these basically the color of my car? A dark gray color? 2nd question, on the wheels, the paint seems to be fading, kinda like a godd old silver car would here in texas, where can I find paint to repaint them or I had thought of getting them chromed. Is this a good idea? Any help would be awesome!
