Hi all...Ive got a few quick detail questions about our 56 sunliner that im hoping the collective brain trust can help with....

1 - the little front fender extensions... they make the fender look a little longer - they go behind where the front bumper wraps around (does that make sense?) and tie into the front gravel pan ends... should those be argent silver or body/fender color?

2 - on the horn ring (with P/S).... should any part of the background around the lettering be painted?  If so, what?  Not the center emblem, but on the actual metal casting itself.  Im asking because its off to be chromed, and the plater says they dont want to polish too much in that area in order to retain crisp lettering, and he says "you will be painting it anyways..."  What part is painted?  Is the letters, or the letter background?  Anyone know?

3 - Is the oil bath air filter supposed to be painted the same argent silver as the front gravel pan?  I know someone posted the paint code here, so i have that, but wondering if i should shoot the air filter while its all mixed up? 

Ive looked in some of the reference books i have, but vant find conclusive proof on any points above.  Can someone help??

THANKS IN ADVANCE!
