Front & rear valence & rocker panel finish Options

[1970 Neun vierzehn]

I've got the original f & r valence panels for my '70/4 and need to get l&r rocker panels. The finish on these panels is smooth, but the color has faded and dulled to a flat shade of dark grey. I don't recall how a 1970 model 914 front, side, and rear valence panels were finished. Black? Gloss(I doubt it)? Semi-gloss? Satin? Flat(I doubt that too)?

Since I'm replacing the side panels(I put on f/g panels on in '78-who knew (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) ), where do I find metal ones that will really fit?

Finally on the side rocker panel fitment, I remember that they were originally pop-riveted on. But what color were the rivets? I remember them being white, but can't be sure. Any '70 models with original panels still on, out there in the Forum?

Pat,
The front and rear valence panels (OEM-circa 1970) are not textured. They are smooth. They are dull, flat, dark grey. I have never waxed them or refinished them. What I don't remember is what color and finish (I'm guessing "satin" or semi-gloss) they left the factory with.
