The ones on my '68 340-S were chromed, darkish argent in the recesses. Any detailing - can't recall exactly whether there was, maybe a band around the perimeter - was black.



Yes. That's how mine are. But matching the argent to what it was like 40 years ago is tough.

It's the color and texture of the argent that I'm concerned with. My worn inserts show a lot of silver metalic compared to black darker contast in the mix. But the contrast agents may just have worn of faster than the silver metalic flakes. It looks like almost all metal flakes now.

I guess since no one has posted pics of an primo original or NOS set, I'll post my originals to show the paint layout.
