[Roadsters] behind grille color

[jrdmf at aol.com]

I?prefer not to see?any color through the grill either so?I like the?way you have done it but If you are?trying to make it look factory then here's?the scoop.? I have two original "never painted" cars and both of them have the face of the area directly behind the grill painted black. (But the top of the front rail is?still the same color as the car.)?The two bars that are removeable are also painted black but eveything else under the hood and behind the grill is the same color as the car. (Including the the area where the horns mount etc.) It actually looks like someone painted the blacked out?sections with a brush and I have heard others with original paint jobs say theirs looks like that too?

Just make it easy on yourself and paint the whole car black? :-)

Hope this helps?

In painting the area behind the grille, I have been told that it was black
from the factory.  I just finished doing that, but an wondering if the entire
area is black, or is some of it in body color.  I posted two new pics of work
here.
