Leave it in my opinion. Flint grey is the best saph colour.

Changing the colour will de-value it too, just keep it flint and get it refreshed

keep it grey mate unless you do plan on keeping her for some time,if you do colour change then consider maybe using a couple of colours that work well together and put on right it will give you a wicked look without upsetting to many people lol

how much you going to sell those rims for budd as i can see them looking good on my car (after a can of black has been set on them )
