This really helps! I can see that the inside of the valance and also the valance cross member are flat black too, as well as the grill supports and hood striker tray.

Man what an awesome Charger you have. Mine was original before the last owner who chose the wrong body shop to redo the car. They took everything down to metal, lost half the bolts, didn't neutralize the rust, and made a pretty big mess. The owner was disgusted with having paid them 15K and it starting to rust after 6 months. He then left it sitting outside for 15 years without putting the motor back in, till I bought it.

I wish I could have 5 minutes with an original car to photograph bolts, fasteners and paint marks to get it right.

Thanks for the pics,
