For ages I have been trying to decide what colour to have my Metro, it is Nightfire red at present but it was going to be Ford Brilliant red with either white bumpers, wheels and roundels.

BUT today we had a mark 1 golf in the workshop which was matt black with white wheels, black bumpers and white roundels on the doors - it think it has sold me!

I just wanted some thoughts on the idea

P.S It is a road going sprint Metro so it won't be any show'n'shines.

Not sure on the white bonnet but here is a 2 min paint job:

not a fan of the door white or the bonnet white. how about matt black with white alloys, bumper strips and wing mirrors?

It's a sprint car, I have to have the roundels on the doors for the numbers and the plate on the bonnet is a stick on so I have room for the timing strut and holes for the rad.

The white wing mirrors is a bit of a plan.

I hold my head in shame Pandy

If that is ok mate, it is a Metro with 6 spokes if that makes a difference?

Narr, straight Metro, body kits just add weight

The only reason I have 6 spokes is that they are 6 kg lighter than the GTI rims (combined weight)

Squares on the doors would look better imo.

I have thought about that but with the curve of the A pillar and the C pillar I think roundels would be best, I had a mk 2 fiesta and that had squares but it suited it.

Pandy! I have been waiting for you to photoshop me this Metro for years, I haven't left the site since you said you were going to do it, I have had to sleep with the laptop by my side, even when me and the wife have been having sex half way through I will stop and click on refresh to see if you had replied to me - oh why oh why are you leaving me hanging Pandy, why oh why!
