Headlight housing - inside color?

Hi,

I am wondering what the correct inside color (covered by the bezel) for the headlight housing is? The remaining color on my housings looks like flat white. Since all other inside parts are semiflat black I would also tend to black.

Thanks!
Dirk

I don't recall any of the parts behind the bezel being painted.
