Default C3 Relay Arm Finish

What is the original finish on the stock C3 relay arms? Black or cast with no paint?
Thx John

Hi CB,
I'm not sure what you're calling 'relay arms'.
And also what year car?
Regards,
Alan

If you are referring to the steering linkage arms, they were bare metal, I believe. If you wish to protect them from corrosion, I would suggest using a self-etching primer followed by a 'cast iron' colored paint.
