. . . What I do see is throwing up a smokescreen in an effort to be right rather than hlepfull. . . . And by the way the grills werent white they were Bombay Ivory.
One person's clarification becomes another person's smokescreen (or, visa versa).
Once again, just to be clear and correct with the proper names of both paint colors: the 1951-st painted-grills were indeed mostly Bombay Ivory, with Onyx Black inner bars.
As I posted above, I do not know if the inner-bar color on 1955-1st chrome grills were black (maybe Onyx Black) or a white color (Bombay Ivory or Pure White).
NOTE: an upper-case letter at the front of a color indicates a proper name, (an official GM color-name). The PPG and DuPont paint codes for most of these colors are in the
Tech Tip.
