hi im wanting to fit my irmscher skirts and i can get them done in texture black but im not sure on how good the match will be so i was thinking about getting all the arches and bumper trim done all one colour so it doesnt look odd.i cant get it done the same colour as the rest of my car as it will look a different shade to the rest of the car so does any one have any idea on what colour would suit my car?

this a photoshop of my car when i was looking to see what it would look like lowered.its now lowered but not as low as this pic but its the best pic iv got atm,also i have smoked mhws in as well.

Quite it how it is now without skirts. Be good with smoked headlights to match the rears.

The same kind of colour as vegasphil's just had his tops re-done I'd say
Agreed with depo's if you don't already have them

Yeah, anthracite is darker than smoke grey. Green colour code would work IMO.

sorry mate i ment marklawtons car is smoke grey (not silver) he has anthracite arches, i think there are a hell of alot of different shades of anthracite too so you'd need to u2u one of the peeps with it done if you like the shade theirs are.

gloss black i reckon, plus if it chips, being a side skirt it will, you can always touch it up easy!
