Trim Hardware Paint Question
I am in the process of painting my car. I got the car as a project and will need to order all new trim hardware and was wondering is it supposed to be painted the same color as the car? Specifically the side grill mounting screws, the rear vent screws, front vent hardware, and the headlight bezel screws?
Thanks

Hi D,
72.... NICE!
The side grill screws are chrome plated, countersunk, oval head, phillips. There's also a threaded stud on the bottom of the grill that takes a nut with an integral washer.
The rear astro-vent grill screws are black-oxide, flat head, phillips.
The wiper grill screws are machine threaded, black-oxide, fillister head, phillips.
The head light bezel screws are machine threaded, chrome plated, oval head, counter sunk, phillips.
The first is pretty easy to find, the rest are more difficult to find. Some vendors have them.
Good Luck!
Regards,
Alan
