Satin silver
« on: 23 May 2011, 11:34 »
Was satin silver a rare colour compared to reflex silver?

Im finding it so hard to get a front bumper in the same colour and as soon as anything comes up on ebay its gone within minutes at silly prices!!

i bought mine knowing it needed a few cosmetic bits thinking i'll just get bits off ebay, but its proving to be very difficult!

Dont get me wrong its not a pile of crap, its just the little things irritate me.

I did manage to get a drivers side wing for £60 delivered though and that that a nasty dent between the door and the arch

Mate of mine has a satin silver mk4. It's got a kind of bluey metallic effect to it. It's crazy nice looking on a sunny day. Very hard to find spares the right colour though and very tricky to colour match.
