Colour quandary

I’m curious if your painter pulled the quarter glass and all trim? In your previous thread it looked to still be on. If that’s the case I would definitely keep it the original color scheme.

I'd take some inspiration from the factory two tone layout from the 442s and/or H/Os.

My favourite is the dark blue/green over grey, and seconded by the maroon over grey.

Then choose colours that have more impact (pearl, flake, shift, gloss).

Quarter glass is still in but most trim removed

Painter and I have discussed that a colour change does require getting a little deeper into tear down

He really should pull all the trim anyway. The quarter glass is easy enough. Tape lines can ruin the look of the job and become a failure point down the road.
