+1 for factory colour.
Some far out metallic colour will look nice while it's new. But when the paint starts to age, a factory colour will still look like it belongs on the car.

Yeah I am glad the Father in Law did most of that job, big hammer and a bar took care of them pretty easy.

OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH Yeeeeaaaaaaah.

Got the good email in the weekend...................................................and she is off to the paint shop this week.

I thought I had decided on the factory colour, father in law and the painter reckon I should change it, apparently there is one similar colour but metallic.

What are people's thoughts on car value is it worth more factory colour or not?

Metallic or the mustard i dont think it matters - when i did the Y there were alot of for and against - "that wasnt a factory colour" and the like, i was always like "no shit Sherlock".

The colour i chose was a factory um ford colour that i knew would be easy to get if i needed to repair and was close to original.

The choice is yours though lol.

Hey, like Brock said, your car, you get to choose the colour. I really like the original poo brown though.
