So, my 914 is mother of pearl white. I have a gallon of black metalic and a gallon of smoke-grey metalic. which do you think would look best for the side rockers, and front and rear bumper lower fairings and the wheel spokes?

+1 for satin black rockers and valence. RSR gray finish on the wheels with polished lip or maybe black centers.

Here's a picture of my car, with black bumpers, semigloss spoiler and rockers. The bumpers are FG, so I had to paint them, and the car looked kinda cool with its original, late model black bumpers, so I went black. Granted, blue is way different than white, so this may not help you. Also, this is a very non-stock, non-original auto-x car, so you may be looking to go with a more stock arangement. I sure like the look of those grey metallic center Fuchs wheels. Dave

I can repaint all of the associated parts easily enough. |
