Bob, you're probably asking in relation to a Chevelle, but further to what James said above, I have a LA-built '69 Camaro; the car has a dark blue interior (including the upper dash) but the VIN plate is a low-gloss black, so it must have been painted separately and then rivetted on after the interior was painted.
