shark fins
I have a question on the shark fins on a 69. One of the fins is a chrome finish. The remainder of them are chrome on the outside perimeter and painted gray on the inside. Which is correct? Also is there a special paint color that I should use if they are painted in the interior?

Should have a chrome edge, and argent silver covering the rest.

Re: shark fins
Are you talking about the openings on each side of the lower front fender just in front of each door, helping to cool the engine compartment? If so, I thought they would be called gills instead of fins.

Actually, they're called LOUVERS and the pieces added with the TJ-2 option are called LOUVER TRIM.
The original louver trim were just as Chuck described.In Appreciation of John HinckleyComment

Thanks for the response. I will be busy repainting the inside of each piece.
