#96105, "Painting car need help with color"


          

I bought a 95 tsi awd that is stock electric blue but the paint is messed up and the color is a little to light for my taste. I would love to do charcoal grey because it looks the best on cars or even a clean white but Im affraid its going to look dumb when I pop my hood and it blue underneath. Any suggestions?

How should I go about blacking it out? A certain brand spray paint? I would love to do charcoal on the exterior but will have to settle for blue if I cant find a way to do something about the engine bay. I dont want the paint to chip off in there either

Scuff the engine bay down with a red 3M scuff pad, and just spray paint it flat black. I just did mine about a week or 2 ago, I will post up some pics tomorrow for you of mine.
