Has anyone seen this type of thing before? I have
a set of the long alloy lug bolts that came off of a car with the Performance Option. On the round tops of the bolts, there is a green dot about 1/2" across. It is the same color green as the struts. The paint survived over the years, thanks to the lug bolt covers. Was this a factory deal? I was going to have them replated silver cadmium, but not if this would take away from there original state. Thanks, 74914LE |

They came painted. At least the hundred or so I PDId at the dealer in 73/74 had the paint marks. Maybe those were the only ones, though .................. The Cap'n
