OK Mopar fans . . . which upper valance (below trunk lid and above taillights} is correct?

Model year 2000 and up Corvettes and Mustangs hogging all the parking spots for older cars. Yeah they are nice cars but I want to see classic cars!

It is considered correct either "cast" color or black as some say they came bare.

2nd gen Camaros with rally wheels.
Of the 200k Camaros with ducted hood, seal is on incorrectly.

According to Delco Moraine paperwork, part of the assembly procedure for master cylinders is to paint them semi-gloss black. I think it's either the 7th step or the 17th step (can't remember) in the assembly. I once posted the sheet which showed it. It's over somewhere in my You Can't Make This Stuff Up! thread. Probably within the first 100 pages. It's orangish yellow so if you want to find it you can scan quickly. I believe (?) it started with the 1967 models when they changed to the dual master cylinder.

You guys have mostly covered very well some of what I hate to see at car shows, but I can add what I most hate to hear: modern or current music whether it is piped in or live where 98% of the cars are from the 50's, 60's, and '70's. I want to hear music from the eras the cars are from.

The same goes for Mopar master cylinders; those with the bail over the cover. Supposed to be painted gloss black as seen below:

Chrysler used two different master cylinders depending on which brakes you ordered. If it's "bolt" style like this one - no paint.
