Two things in response. Hood Hinges should look more black than gray when properly finished. After decades of exposure, especially to sun light, the finish can appear more grayish. The throttle finish - been too cold for me to go look; however, from pictures I can see online the finish does appear to show the same type of fading to gray that would indicate a phosphate finish vs. black zinc
