Tom, what do you mean about the black area being foil? Do you mean your's is silver in that area? That was an NOS GM replacement from ebay, but here are some pictures of an original taken off a low mileage 68 SS396 built at Framingham. I don't recall the exact build date, but I know it was before December. They both appear to be the same.





Also Joe, I have been able to get nice red 427 foils out of pitted bezels with a torch. If you apply heat to the backside, the metal gets hot enough that the chrome under the foil bubbles and as the glue softens they basically fall right out.
