Was it body color or black? Thanks. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2008 Posts: 104 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2008 Posts: 104 | Not sure if its correct or not , but my 53 was body color. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 1,186 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 1,186 | The edge I think your describing would have been painted the body color. The underside of the hood should be a somewhat flat black color with overspray from painting the edges.
