The time has come to give my R a fresh coat of paint! ive been putting off for the past 5 years but its got to the point where she looks really tired and dry. Im going to be painting in its original colour....grey, but i cant decide if i should colour code the bumpers, door trims and wheel arch trims etc????? Any suggestions would be taken on board or if any one has some detailed photos of their grey colour coded R could they send me the links to their thread for me too look at to help me make my mind up?

cheers :-D

Yes do it.

Mine was done in japan and it looks much better!

Only thing not done was the door handles and anything extra on the wing mirrors.

I prefer the grey R to be colour coded aswell.

Nooo keep the black trims! Just come nice bumper gel on them to keep them black.

Another vote for black trim, it's just better.

I prefer all the black trim especially when it looks fresh and not faded.

Thanks for the replies guys, I know the black plastics on the bumpers tend to fade but was thinking of spraying them satin black to try and keep that shiny look?
