Painting radiator support and headlight brackets on '73?

We are getting ready to paint everything behind the grill on our '73 Rallye clone.  The car will be Top Banana.  Does anyone have pictures of what the paint behind the grill is supposed to look like?  Should the radiator support and headlight mounting brackets be black?  Should the hood latch tray be body color?

Thanks in advance!

Awesome, thanks for the info, fellas.  I see some numbers on the drawing there for black out paint, is that the paint code?  If not, do you know what the paint code is?  Or does everyone generally use flat or satin black?

I'm a little late to the subject but hopefully a picture will help someone in the future.
Everything in front of the radiator support is original. This is a '71 w/hidden headlights. Black on the sides and body color on center of rad support and hood latch support.
