If u blow this photo up u can see the DARK GRAY LINE around the harringbone so pretty sure we can say this is an orig untouch plate considering the fine originality of the rest of the car.

Heres a crazy thought - Wonder if they were trying to match the dark brown on the steeing wheel and radio knobs?
Just hit me that '33 didnt have a Brown Steering Wheel. Radio was an option so its a long shot they were thinking of matching the Knobs. Bottom line is this is a bad idea.

AND is this su8 DARK BROWN a chemical thing or is it paint? One would have to assume they had paint out to do the strip line so why not paint for the harringbone. Dwg just state "COLORED DARK BROWN" and nothing about how. For '12' states "OXIDIZED" for its insert.
