Cuda Upper Cowl Black Paint

I was at a car show this past weekend and there were two Hemi Cudas at the show that I had never seen before. One was a 1970 and the other was a 1971. Both had the upper cowls around the vent screens painted black. Was this standard for both years?
I can't remember if I had seen it before for both years and my 71 Challengers did not have the upper cowls painted black. Thanks for any info.
