Vista Air deflector Question

Anyone know if they painted the rear air deflector for the vista. They are aluminum?

Thanks

Doug

I've had a couple of these and agree with Erik, they were painted body color. John

Painted.

I've got a couple and I'm going to polish one for kicks. They had shiny stainless ones on other cars so I don't think sun reflections would be a big deal unless you're in an airplane.
