Originally all the scoops were painted body color on the top, flat black primer on bottom for the same reason you black out behind the grille. With this exception: the is a V21 (fender tag option) that painted the hood and cowl like I painted my Dart Custom, but in organisol black - a kind of very lightly textured semi-gloss black. Hardly anybody still uses organisol except for 100 point concours restorations because if you get even a little wax on it while waxing the adjacent body color paint it will never be right again. That's why I did mine in gloss black 20 years ago. There is somebody here that uses a specific mix that looks almost identical to organisol without the draw backs. If you go that route - on a Sublime green car it sure would look wicked, especially with the trimmed hood edge!
