A arms paint finish gloss or matt etc.

Hello all.
Does anyone know what the paint finish is on the 'A' arms for a 1970 911?
Mine is now in pieces and it looks like it used to be a gloss finish.
Is that correct?
Cheers.
John.

Re: 356 Wiring problem?

The front right hand side is a bit worse for ware.
At least it looks like the other driver has admitted liability.
Its all down to insurance now !!!!
Any ideas of a good repairer?
