    Need to know correct finish: SWB front caliper brace (901.351.411.13)

    As the photo shows, I have removed the finish from this part, and the detergent revealed bare steel. It seems that at least some of the surfaces must have been painted black.

    Can anyone help by posting a photo with correct finishes?

    Thank you.
