1) Do the undersides of the fenders get painted the same color as the overall body color or were they originally painted black underneath?
2) Firewall, underside of hood & grille frame - same question. Overall body color or black?
3) Interior color - does the interior all get painted one color or is it just the interior door skins & dash?
These may all be no-brainer questions but when I got the truck there were probably 5 different colors all over the truck.
Thanks for the help.

I believe this one is easily answered: for the most part if it can be removed from the cab with screws or bolts then it should be removed and painted the interior color (hammered Beige). If is integral (sp?) to the cab then it is body color.
