Vito,

CF37325U still has its factory paint and the fender bolts and door hinge
bolts are painted body color. As far as any interior door bolts you'll
have to be more specific, as some of the smaller bolts holding the
window stops and channels were not painted. But then they are not
exposed, so I doubt it makes any difference, at least to me anyway. 
A bit of warning on sealing the seam between the fenders and body. The
shop that painted CF38690UO felt the seams should be sealed at the
surface so a crack wouldn't be seen. It was a mistake because the body
flexes so much the paint cracks at these seams after a while.
Let me know if I can help further,
