I think black on silver looks ace. If you are going ahead with it looking forward to some pics.

Spray them silver. Then wrap them in black vinyl, if you must. At least that way you can peel it off when/if you get sick of it and have some nice (well maybe not that nice, as it's silver) body coloured paintwork underneath and not have to get it resprayed.

Eh Techie dont mock Silver. In 2003 the British Medical Journal published an article stating that silver is the safest coulour for a car. Less accidents and injuries. So it turns out, it is good for something.Unless you go the whole hog like Mbes2 body coloured parts is the way to go.

Have the courage of your convictions. Do all the stuff on your list, buy a diffuser if you don't have already (TAT short) and voila.


orrr buy a proper Diffuser ;)

Looks good, not sure on the wing mirrors, maybe the plinth needs painting aswell? But your car so your choice :thumbsup:
