I know the Tail panel, underhood cowl and inner-fenders are black, but where exactly does the black paint start and finish? Am i am missing any other areas? Thanks for any help guys!!

You can buy a DVD of all the detail shots of this low mile unrestored car from Barry, and check out factory drawings like the one I posted on his Challenger T/A registry and Hammtramk registry websites. (IIRC the drawings may have been pulled at Chrysler's request, but Chrysler historical was going to make them available?) 4950075-4333491-Blackoutandstripes13.jpg (628 downloads)

Is that a decal under the spoiler? any reason behind this? around the cowl, did the factory tape it off like that or did they just overspray onto the firewall??? Thanks guys

Pinch welds are ugly, this 'disguises" them. Quote: Is that a decal under the spoiler? Yes, they come with the T/A stripe kit. The intent with the T/As was that no body color would show from the rear of the car in this area. Quote: around the cowl, did the factory tape it off like that or did they just overspray onto the firewall? They sprayed the black first, then masked it off and sprayed the body color.
