ripleydale Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I see black and grey or metal finish. Does anyone know what the factory finish was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monteman1971 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 As far as I know they were bare metal... I painted mine a shade of gray because I drive it a lot and not to concerned about it being correct. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC1of80 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I agree with Steve. Bare metal. I painted mine with cast blast. A greyish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Peters Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Most of them I have seen are rust color........ Sorry, I could not help myself. It is no wonder so many of them did not hold up so well if they were bare metal from the factory. rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostnFound Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I had mine powder coated satin black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS5 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Did mine in a POR 15 grey as well as the swaybar so it was offset from everything else being Black. But as Steve mentioned they were just a bare metal color.. It is more like Slate Grey though now. Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripleydale Posted November 27, 2018 Author Share Posted November 27, 2018 Interesting there are a few opinions and most seem to land on metal finish. After soaking mine in evaporust, I see black paint on mine. I asked the original owner about if he ever painted anything under there and he said no. I’m inclined to think they were painted black from the factory. It would be good to hear from Leo. Thanks for the replies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
