Did you know there were other colors for the lower trim besides black? I think med blue received dark blue lower, and med green received dark green. Can't remember if there was a gold too....?

AFAIK the 1970 Cyclone GT which was the only Cyclone to get the two tone paint only came in two colors depending on the main color: Black and Silver. You could also delete the two tone paint treatment







According to the picture in the brochure and other cars I have seen the panel below the bumper should be body color not accent color.

Actually that car is a pre-production Cyclone GT. The molding go higher up on the fenders for the standard two tone paint on a production car. Look at the brochure photos above
