I have seen very nicely restored and/or custom cars with their fender wells painted to match the body, and an equal number where the fender wells are painted black. Modern cars seem to have their fender wells lined with black plastic, at least that is how my VW's and Audis are. This is not something that everyone notices, but some may have an opinion.

Thanks guys, it is really a toss up with me. From my build thread, you can see that I commited the cardinal sin of color changing the car, so I don't think I will ever win an award on that account. :-)
As far as undercoating goes, I think that can allow dirt more grip and could build up more. Perhaps we should also talk about the bottom of the car as well. From mine, it was never dealer-undercoated. You can see it has the base factory sealer, with a thin coat of color on that. It seems to have held up pretty well in most areas. |
