Be careful however:  most of those photos are Korean War era (or later).  Not necessarily representative of WWII era HVARs.  This is a subject area that bears a LOT more research than has likely ever been done since HVARs were in the inventory.

 

Yeah, I noticed that the color photo Finn posted was a Korean war era pic.  It shows the HVAR rocket motor to be a grey-ish color.   Dana Bell's book has an awesome color pic of HVAR's being loaded on a Corsair circa 1945 and those motors are clearly a dull lsilver (either painted or NMF).
