My cossie is supposed to be mallard green. My mates got a smokestone and a mallard green one and its in between the two. Looks nice though.

Cheers

I was thinking of going a different colour but looked about and it just had to be black

but like you said keeping it clean is a pain in the ass (i should know i use the car every day)

pic to help you make up your mind

My saph was originally Diamond White but just had it painted in Frozen White.

Frozen White is a much nicer colour and makes the car look a lot fresher!

Makes Diamond White look like hearing aid beige!!! LOL!

Got to admit though, I do like Crystal blue. I think it's my favourite saph colour.
