Can't argue with that, and I also agree with Schonye; they tend to fade over the years.

Now the next question; which color went on first; Silver or 'the other color' ? Has anyone tried sanding through either color to see what's under it?

I agree with Joe that you may question the degree of black, or the flatness of it, but it should look black, not grey.

Whiter shade of pale, Procol harem. Where the hecks that Belair at?
