Headlamp bezel difference
What is the difference in 73-78 headlamp bezel inserts? Gray, black or all chrome. Why the different options?

Re: Headlamp bezel difference
Thanks. I wonder what the full chrome ones came on? I found one and am looking for its mate. And/or how hard it would be to paint it to match a colored one or remove the color from one.

Re: Headlamp bezel difference
Maybe too good of a question. I was hoping someone would know the answer though.

73-74 = black 75-76 = argent silver 77-78 = dark argent (a charcoal gray color) These bezels were first chrome plated and then the recessed area around the headlight opening was painted. So the all chrome ones could be any 73-78 bezel that's had the factory paint removed. Quote:
Removing the factory paint is fairly easy too. Chemical paint stripper or lacquer thinner will take it off without harming the chrome. |
