The fibreglass front nose panel on my 73 challenger (that the headlight buckets mount to) was blacked out in the early 80's.
I'm in the process of putting the car back into factory paint, and am going to strip the black panel.
The front is obviously black (with factory red underneath) but the rest of the panel is just bare grey fibreglass.
I'm not 100% sure it's the factory panel for my car, so I'm curious if just the front of these panels were painted body colour, and the rest was left bare, or was the entire panel painted body colour at the factory?
Sorry; I should clarify that on my panel the front where the headlight buckets mount, and the top where the hood latch mounts have been blacked out; the rest is unpainted.
Thought I would refresh this thread as I am about to paint my fibreglass headlight panel.
Would the whole thing have been painted body colour at the factory?
I'm guessing the other option if it was already installed on the car before painting is that the top and front would have been painted and the rest wouldn't have?
That is what I suspected, but wanted to confirm.
Thanks Burdar!
