So rignht now I am working on a Silvia front end of a S13.Repair of the bumper fenders and the hood. I'm having trouble deciding what color to paint the fenders, hood, and bumper. White/Black would be a universal color but nothing too expensive two tone color job. So im asking people on here if they are considering a Silvia front end what color would you like it as? Or when I do repair all the front end peices just primer it let the buyer paint it whatever he chooses. Maybe ask the buyer what coler he wants and get it painted for him? your opinions would help thanks.

If you've got all the colors of paint at your disposal, paint it the color of their car for an extra charge. If not, I'd suggest just primer it gray or black, let them do what they want.

For selling purposes primer is going to be best if it's not all color matched already.

PS, your sig is too large. Please resize it within the forum limits.
