greenmtn They are called Siding Mounting Blocks - check out this link which has a several versions of them : http://www.aifittings.com/arliprod6.htm I have run into a similar problem. The siding blocks that the electricins put in are too small for our light backplates. My problem is the length of the backplate, not the width. For the lights mounted against the hardi plank siding, I am going to use the arlington double tall siding block face plate which will fit into the box that is already installed. The also make a MEGA block which might help you out. The real challenge for me are lights mounted against the areas that are stoned becuase the stone face is rough and won't allow the siding block face plate to snap in flush with the box. For these situations, I am going to make face plates out of wood and mount that wood face plate to the siding block face plate (a face plate on the face plate). I will also have to put in a spacer between the 2 so that the exterior wwoden face plate comes out past the stone. The inner platsic siding block face plate will snap in flush to the box - once I trim it down a little. The outter wooden face plate will provide a flush mount for the light, that is larger than the lighting fixture back plate. It seems like such a simple thing - but has turned out to be a royal pain in the rear. Hope this helps.

We used BM Revere Pewter as well. I tried 6 different gray/blue colors and it was the winner. What I LOVE about it is that it seems to change colors during the day depending on the lighting. I am now going to continue it into my living room. It's a great neutral color and that goes well with so many other colors.

Try Sherwin Williams "Sea Salt" Sheen will depend on WHAT you are painting. Walls can be flat or eggshell finish. Cabinetry or trim use satin or semigloss

Everyone's computer monitor will read the color differently. Sky High 360 may be able to contact the previous owners and ask for the paint color/brand. Or your realtor. Another option, bring home a ton of paint chips and find one that is close enough. On my monitor it reads a very blue grey.
