I am restoring my 68 Charger and I had my tail light housings re-chromed. My question is, what color black are they finished with? Mine were gloss black when I bought the car and I know that is not correct. I know the tail panel gets a textured black but I think I remember the tail lights themselves were painted satin or semi gloss. Anyone know for sure?
 
Satin black is what I used on my tail panel on my 68 Coronet.

It came out looking nice and right.
 
Thanks, That is what I was thinking. The gloss black on mine looked way to shiney. I just want to make sure they are not the same textured black as the rear panel. I had one of these cars new back in 68 but can't remember the correctness.
