Stefano:

I know you asked for ORIGINAL and these pics are from last year. I took detailed photos upon disassembly, but can't find them (pre-digital camera days). I can tell you that the black paint on the top of that tulip (may be wrong terminology) is factory original paint. I did not respray that area. I only cleaned it off. It is the original black paint. The only white overspray on there is so light a camera will not pick it up. Just a few tiny specs, almost microscopic in size.

If I find the pics taken during disassembly, I will post. All I have are my notes indicating that the "white out" ended abruptly at that seam, and that it continued along closer to the windshield. Although, I can see no reason for it to continue on there other than that is where the guy with the spray gun shot it. You can't see that area through the vent panel.
