SEM makes one. I forget the exact name, but it's discussed in this thread: https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/...lor-or-finish/

That forum seems to be down at the moment, but it should hopefully come back.

Most of the green parts are actually zinc plated, specifically it's called 'olive drab' zinc coating.

EDIT: Although the color looks the same, the lines are plastic coated (PVF) rather than zinc coated like the brackets.
