Engine bay color

[Khuotakharma]

Hello e buddies.....restoring my engine bay and not sure what color these parts for radiator core support area should be.

Any help is appreciated.

Body color on the core support. Spring and latch not painted, horns black. I’m not sure if the latch had some kind of platings. At least that’s what I believe. The front side of the core support can be blacked out depending on the car and color.

Thanks Rich. My car is jy9 Tahitian gold. It's a darker brown so I don't think it would be necessary black them out. I know the piece that goes between the core support and the front clip should be body color. It seemed the vertical piece and the horn bracket had body color or at least body color overspray. Definitely dont like the argent my painter put on the latch assembly and the spring. I've seen them black and body color. Wonder if I can blast that latch assemnly to repaint it?
