I still haven't decided what to do with the grille/head light trims and I want to finish the painting in the next few weeks.

Black or Green? What do you think? Please vote above.

Black without fail. Green version looks like it's wearing too much make-up.

I'mwith Adam. Green looks more complete, just round the edge as in your pic though - full green would be OTT imo

PS I saw Rammstein at download this year. They were awesome!

Yeah, I nearly wet myself with laughter! The bit where they were boiling the gimp in the pan was funny. I was right over to the left of you

I think I would go green on the light plastics and black grill. Its going to be a marmite moment for everyone. Which one do you like the most?

I've got my own preference (which I'm keeping to myself for the time being) but I just wanted to see what other like minded individuals thought.

I'm trying to avoid a reoccurrence of the time (1980's) when I painted my Rosso red Ford XR2's wheels in Rosso red to match the bodywork. Stepped back to view the end result and the phrase WTF was coined!!! Sadly, no photos of this almighty cock-up.

Or even colour coded hockey sticks with the lower bar of the grille also colour coded but keeping the sides and upper part of it black...?
