I did one of each of the front running colours which were vaux smoke grey and a gloss black.


I think I am swaying towards black myself as the finish on them is better. Think rattle canning a metalic colour just doesnt look quite as it should. Although maybe after laqour it would look better. Another + for black is that it is more cost effective as I all ready have a big ass can of it in the shed


anyway opinions:


Black







smoke grey

Not sure whether a darker grey will still be a bit too much of the same colour. And if its much darker I might as well stick with black

High maintainance


I think white would look good but I am going to keep it a bit more subtle to go with the rest of the car that is all standard looking
