Curious on a 74 duster the hood latch,pop up spring,hood catch and striker. What finish would they have? owner says he has 2 original 74 a bodies and the catch and spring are body color. My thought they all would not be.

On a trunk the striker naturally is body color and the latch is normal latch coating?

What is everyone using for the latch coatings if not sending them in for redoing?
