Default Color match?

I have a red 97 Z28 and the paint code is 8774. Will this red match the red off of a 2002 SS. I don't know what the paint code is for that year. Reason why i ask is i'm thinkin about buyin the SS spoiler off someone and was wondering if the paint would match or at least be close to matching. Thanks in advance for any input.

It's the same code, but remember you're talking about a piece that is 5 years newer than your paint. So, if your paint has faded some, chances are you'll be able to tell a difference.
