The black treatment was done at the factory. They found out the grills
looked better with a black background. They sprayed semi-gloss black and it
was just hazed. (not thick and solid) I will never say always or never when
it comes to Ma Mopar but all the survivors I have seen were done this way.
I'm just not sure what year they started. I can't remember that part of my
new cars back then. You guys probably have better memories than my 61 years
old ones.
