Default 65 vert 3 questions

A buddy has a 65 SB vert and wanted me to ask the experts on here, here goes.
1, He bought new screws for the headlight bezels. They are black, should the be painted body color ? Silver pearl is the color.
2, If he buys the fully welded exhaust will he be able to hang it under the car with the body on ?
3, Any way he can use Impala wiper arms. Not sure where this idea came from but apparently they cost 1/2 what the C2 arms cost.
Thanks for any input we can get here.

probably not concerned with NCRS originality if wanting to use Impala wipers.
1. upper screws were originally silver i.e zinc plated. Lowers were black. They can all be painted body color if owner wants, or left black.
2. yes. It's not fully welded or you could not hang it at all, body on or off.
3. yes, if the holders use 15" inserts.

Yes I think he wants it pretty correct. Just a tightwad. Thanks for the info, I'll pass it on.
