Trim color

On a 1987 IROC Z28 what was the original color of the outer edge of the T-tops? Was it a gloss or flat black?

Re: Trim color

Satin Black is going to be the correct finish for all black exterior trim. Not completely flat, but not glossy either. I used Duplicolor Trim Black (comes in a green aerosol can) on mine.
