Default Headlamp Door Color
What color is the underside of the headlamp door? Should it be the body color or plain white?

TIA -mike

My car had been painted way too many times. It appeared that the underside was white, like the original color. The parts are original. I just beaded them and I would like to reassemble. I will be painting the car dark gray. I guess anything close would be a plus.

Tahnks for the relpys
