Plus I've seen a handful of Tona's with the dealer replacement honeycomb mat'l in place as well

QUESTION: Are the Superbird grille screen and grille frame supposed to be painted the body color or black? I've seen them both ways and am curious to find out which way is correct.

ANSWER: The order of assembly of the Superbird nose is as follows: (1) The exterior of the bare shell is primered in light grey. (2) The interior bare shell is painted in satin black over bare metal. (3) The grille frame and park light frames are primered in light grey on the front and back sides, off the car. (4) The headlamp doors are painted flat black while still in bare fiberglass. (5) All special nose internal parts are pre-painted satin black over bare metal. (6) The nose is completely assembled (no color coat yet). (7) The park lamp lenses are masked off. ( The nose assembly is color-coated (off the car). Park lamp frames and grille frame screws are color coated. Overspray goes everywhere, except on the headlight doors because they are masked off. (9) These frames are never black. There are two different frame retaining screws. One type is a unique flat-headed phillips with course threads. The other is a chromed, rounded-head phillips. Either one will work in the original J-nuts that are used for the frames. Their size is #10. In any case, the mating areas of the frames and the nose shell are always light grey primer, and the screws are always color coated
