No, i would stick with the same colour which is black. My personal opinion is black cars look better, when clean  :laugh:

Depends on how much money you want to spend as a colour change is surely still going to cost you even knowing the painter and what colour you want at the end of the day you need to be happy.

Personally I'd stick to the same, as I couldn't be arsed removing the engine etc to paint the bay.

this is one of the reasons that i'm leaning towards to keeping the same colour but i really like the mk4 r32 blue

Deep blue pearl is a mint colour but for the effort and price I would just stick to jazz. Like Barry said why not get a good detail instead of paint?
