silver for me I believe silver is neutral enough to use with any color interior adn silver is much easier to maintain than the dark colors
True, silver is neutral and so is palomino, and IMHO 2 neutral colors without an iota of contrast makes for a boring, lowkey auto, or BLA.....

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

I am a fan of black myself. I think its a good color for luxury or sport, but when it comes to a MB, I always perfer silver, especially the two-tone, silver and blue on the bottom. My next one will be that color.

I think I am going to go with silver. I do like black and the dark blue, but dark colors are harder to keep clean, and more importantly harder to make look good when dealing with a beat up 20 year old 300,000 mile car. I have already done the bodywork and primed and block sanded 4 times just to make sure it is slick, but black will show anything I may have missed.

I'm slowly preparing mine but I'm keeping the same color.... even though I don't much like it....and I have a couple of questions. Have you removed all chrome, including gutters, bumpers, and grille? Have you continued to drive it stripped down? Did you spray on the primer from a can?
Thanks,
charlie
