Default What is the easiest color to detail?
We have silver now and I will never get that color again because of mismatched paint. What color is the easiest to maintain?

Default Silver.
Hehe. Really, it's probably true. White may be easier to actually detail, but silver hides dirt better.

Default Re: Silver.
Yea I figured that. Those are my two least favorites now. We had our rear bumper painted a few times and the paint just won't match up. They say silver is bad about that.

It does shine better than white though.

Default pearl white. Not easy to match color and texture.

While pearl may be a pain to paint, silver is the hardest to match.
