I've got an almond green mk1 with a white roof. I don't really fancy this colour combination and is wondering wheter painting the roof black or Tweed/Dove grey.

Could anyone do this job for me?

White is not an option. It's either dark grey or black.

I like the grey to be honest. while the other colours look good on almond green, the grey is just a little different

IMO the o my way to lift the green is a lighter colour or they always look muddy or dirty.
I stuggled with this but when for snowberry just because I was sick of seeing the car all green. I'm still not sure but it's better. They do look a bit more browney due to being so close to the darkish greens . Good luck V and get some pics!

If you don't like the colour, paint it a different one altogether. surely this is having an effect on your sub concious when your in a race. Mind you there are some people that when in a race car in the middle of a race, all they can see is red. If this is you, why bother with the colour................
