    We could use a little help and hopefully some close up pictures. We are stripping down to metal and repainting a Black 88.5 TR to its original blue metalica color but we cant find any pictures that are clear enough to see the inside of the strakes back by the radiators. We assume that there is both black and blue similar to how the yellow and red cars are painted. Appreciate any help.

    Are you looking to find out which parts are OEM black rather than body color?

    Yes, it's hard to describe the part of the strakes that are black and what is body color. Most of the pictures of blue TR's are too dark to see the detail. Since the car is now black, we are not sure what should stay black and what should be the body color. I assume it should be painted the same as other color cars except 512 but want to make sure.

    If nobody beats me to it, I’ll get out in the garage tomorrow and snap pics. On a white/ black car it will show well.

    Here are some removal steps if you haven't gotten that far yet. I have a lot more photos if you need more details on hardware, etc. Good luck!
