72 Roadrunner Parts Color Questions
Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2015 8:57 am
Ok, so I used SEM bumper coater on my 72 grille and it turned out really nice. I am very happy with it. Now what about these pieces:
1. Front turn signal lens surrounds? Ours appear to be the same greyish color as the grille. Is that correct?
2. Lower valence grille where the front license plate would go? On our car it is black and I think it is original.
3. Rear tail light surrounds? Ours are definitely black with no hint of another color but I have seen NOS ones listed on Ebay that appear to be the same greyish color as the front grille. Which is correct?
Sorry for all the questions but I have found there is a wealth of knowledge here that has made many parts of our restoration much easier and a previous owner obviously took some personal liberties with his paint color choices. If the grey color is correct on the front signals and rear tail lights should I use the same SEM bumper coater or is there another product that is a closer match?
Thanks for the help guys.
