I'm putting an NOS set of stack style hood louvers on my 68 SS. I've noticed that some of the old date boxes have a different color combination than the latter GM and those sold reproduction. What was original?
Early old box NOS are pewter gray painted insets and silver backing plate.
Later NOS are black painted insets and black backing plate.

Pat, I've never seen anything other than black, but that doesn't mean much I guess.
I do like the look of the pewter though!

They are for sale if anybody needs a set. They are the last ones that they made are 1 part number for each side.
