In Reply to: Paint Colors For My WDX posted by Jim Palmer on Thursday, May 29, 2003 at 10:01AM :

Headlight rings in all Power Wagon factory photos are painted black (although most guys use the chome rings as found on two-wheel drive trucks).

Early factory photos of wheel studs are silver (actually nickel cadmium plated I have been told) as are the lug nuts, split rings, grill fasteners, fender fasteners, and bed fasteners. Filler panels found on early beds between bed and cab appear to be body/bed color. In early photos standard mirror arms are painted black, long arm mirror arms are black with silver (stainless?) extensions.

In later factory photos (WM300) the wheel studs and fender fasteners are black. Grill and bed fasteners are body/bed color. On later WM300s the mirror arms are painted white just like the W100-300 series and two-wheel drive trucks. On the WM300 trucks with the black padded dash, the dash is painted black also. Finally, all later factory photos I have seen feature fenders painted body color.

Hope this helps.
