I`ve been given a dilemma, the chap at the spray shop says seen as im keeping the car why not have it re sprayed in a different grey to modernise it!!!

But which GREY?!?!?!?

He`s not going to spray the sills or the engine compartment or frunt so a similar lighter grey would be preferable.

Any ideas??


If it were me, I'd stick to the original colour code for the car so everything matches :thumleft:
