Standard vent window frame color

Wondering what shade of black standard vent windows came in?. All of mine have surface rust, but maybe came in a satin black?. I purchased chrome vent windows awhile back, but the older I get the less I like changing original things.

I have originals that are gloss black so thats what I got them done in when I had the pieces powdercoated.

Re: Standard vent window frame color

Now that I think about it, The inside black looks like gloss black, I don't think GM would bother with two different shades of black for inner/outer colors?, mmmmm.

Re: Standard vent window frame color

Interesting mine are stainless and I just assumed they all were, mine is (was)a "Custom" 1970 Jimmy, like a CST Blazer with the wood trim on the sides and tailgate. Though I planned on having them powdercoated black and I was thinking that was unique, apparently not .
