Can anyone tell me what is the proper way to paint the cowl area under the dash and behind the front fenders.Where does the body color end and the semi-gloss black begin......thanks graemlins/clonk.gif

This is my 68 right after I removed the body. It had the original cowl paint. It said 454 on the cowl just in front of the driver door which is the last 3 numbers in the vin.
The green stops at the top of the cowl just as it's going horizontal . So when the fenders are on the car it's all black on top but when the doors are open you see body color..
