Painting Castrol Tom's Supra

Hey all,

Those who have built this kit I have a question. On step 2 it shows part of the chassis is tobe painted chrome silver, but the pictures seem a bit confusing (a first for any Tamiya kit that I have built). What exactly is to be painted Chrome Silver? It looks as if the area in which the tranny sits and what would be, on an American car, the driver's side would be silver. Is this correct? It doesn't seem right as an indicator at the bottom of the pic shows the chassis is to be painted white, like the rest of the car. So what gives?
