Bonnet underside colour** urgent help needed!

[Craig Allardyce]

Hi Guys,

I have come across a pic of a stock FB/EK with the underside of the bonnet painted black. Does anyone know of this being a factory thing/option? I thought they were body colour underneath.

From what I can see most EK commercials were satin black on the underside of the bonnet and all the rest were body colour. I have however seen a photo on this sight of one of Steve Jacksons cars (FB sedan) that was black on the bonnet underside.

Thanks.

Thanks Cal!

be buggered why I didn't do a search first on this site

Now I'm thinking about the underside of the sun visor as well. I have been told they were a light green colour underneath......

Thanks Stewart also. I saw your post in the link Cal quoted above. Wishing I had taken more and more photo's now!!

Thanks Rosco,

seems all but some Sydney built models were body colour.
I have only been looking at sedans though but think I have noticed that a lot of commercials in other states were black. Anyone confirm this??
