What colour will look nice with Moondust Silver?

Postby tmm » Thu Mar 09, 2017 9:56 pm

Im going to spray the 1/4 of my transit van which is now a campervan but i don't want to spray it the same colour as the rest of the van which is Moondust Silver. I have repaired the arches and bottom of the wings so Im looking to make it 2 tone just to take the plainess off. I was going to add a poll but can't find the option :(
What colours do you think will go well with Moondust Silver? Im thinking of maybe a dark grey?

Would really love some of your opinions though as im really stuck with choosing the correct colour.

You do know that it's not 1979, and that two colour respects are not currently in vogue?

Yes, one nice colour rather than boring silver. Silver is a colour ordered by people who think vehicles are purely a means of getting from A-B, anyone who appreciates vehicles would have a different colour. Silver doesn't even look good when it's polished.
