Hi guys,
The painter rang me and wants to know what is green .
I know what is Green except not 100% sure on one bit!
The windscreen pillars inside. Are they body colour? Mine were painted black.... Any ideas?
Cheers Brett

The metal fillets which stick up at the heater vents on the top dash rail had some sort of black enamel applied to them by the factory however, so you didn't get a little flash of body colour sticking up through the vinyl dash rail cover.

It was pretty rough, looks like it was applied by brush, and didn't always cover the body colour entirely because of the brush marks.
