Okay, going to be respraying the car after all the bodywork has been done but cant decide to stick with the same colour, or go for a slightly lighter shade of the same colour, or go for a different colour (staying blue, if that makes sense)

any sugestions?

yes not the above.

No point spending all that money to have your car painted a "slightly" different colour

Are we talking a full respray? Or just door shuts etc (i.e engine out job)

Also pics of the car to help us judge style what would suit it or not.....

cost are only going to be materials, and it needs done anyway

full respray within reason, door checks will be done, engine will be staying in as im no mechanic




more pics in my garage, has black wheels now, bumpers will be smoothed and tailgate will be delocked and wipered, but the handle is staying
