Is there a link anywhere to show what 350lc parts should be colour wise? Just doing a bit of rolling resto and the levers are olive after the black has worn off, would be nice to know what should be the original finishes.

Mirror stems in olive? How do I strip the mirrors off to get that done then?

Sweet!
just what I was looking for... I went to two different platers in Birmingham jewellery 1/4 this morning and dropped a few bits off - seems some in the wrong place.
My old kickstart looks grey black, not green. The green plater said the acid would melt the rubber, the guy that did grey black said not...I couldn't get the rubber off so dark grey green black it is for now.
Any tips for getting the rubber off? I was going to warm it gently in the oven...
The other thing was the clocks support pressing looked ( same in your photos) looks satin grey black not green.
I think the drab olive green fades to grey when it ages.
