#1 Colour for interior of nose

Post by mxke » Tue Feb 18, 2020 3:59 pm

What is the correct colour foe the interior of the nose? Upon cleaning up parts from that area it looks like a gray colour? Thanks!

The interior (the section from headlights forward) colour on my bonnet nose is a combination of rust, this gray colour under the dirt/oil/undercoating and flat black paint...
What should it be?
Thanks
