Well when we did our black Cuda it wasn't an issue, now we have a customers cuda in the shop and it is sublime, Anyone have pictures of the blacked out area behind the grille, ?? center support, both rad panels and the headlamp buckets, i would think it starts under the upper tie bar??   thanks in advance, David

Correct , below the upper tie bar center support & both sides of the rad out where the grille covers , the most often forgotten part is the lower rad support below the valance

Here are a few pictures I took of the header panel on my '70 Cuda before I sanded it down.  It is what the original looked like.
