The head light actuator bracket is one and the same as the head light hsg support. Can you help me out here on just what you mean?

If I understand correctly what you are talking about, it should be zinc chromate.

I'll try and explain this usingpics of parts from Corvette Central as it will save time. The headlight housing support I've paintedwith withKrylon Lacquer KO1613 Semi Flat Black paint. Again for time sake this is headlight housing support is Corvette Central part number 443085L.

My question is correct color for judgingon the headlight actuator bracket (Corvette Central P/N 443080). I've not purchased these parts from CorvetteCentral I'm just using the pics they have for an example.
Thanks for your help
