These photos are taken of a genuine all-original US market GTS. No paint work was done to the owner's knowledge.
The hoods are satin black. I think I vaguely recall a slight metallic flake, which I had never noticed before. The Fender flare rivets were NOT painted but maybe originally they were and the paint got waxed off over the years.
I hope that helps.
