I'll be looking at getting a lovely new coat for the Griff some time in the not too distant.

My heart says Black/Charcoal or that orangy colour, is it Candy Apple or something like that?

What are the thoughts on this subject.

Can we have some nice photo's showing off your recommended colour?

Cheers
Lazy

To a great extent it depends on your interior colour as to what's the best for the outside. Although I very much like my Green Starmist/Magnolia combination, (pics in profile) if I'd have chosen a Griff from new it would have been Blue Starmist/Cream.

I have to say that I've seen some combinations that just seem to clash, but obviously whoever ordered it, liked it

So, what colour is your interior?

Its dark blue, as is the exterior. So I suppose that narrows my options unless I have spare cash for a new interior. Which I haven't !

Hmmm... with a Navy interior I would go for the Orange's Reds or Yellows, in my head black doesn't sit so well with blue trim, also having a dark inside it's nice to have a bright colour outside.

I used to run a giallofly griff 500 with navy trim... loved it to bits

I dunno, can't quite put my finger on it...

Very true silver looks good with navy

My problem is there seem to be too many silver cars around these days... hell we've got two

I like silver on Griffs and the blue interior would stay well.


I think I'd lean more towards gunmetal than bright silver though.

Thats nice - I fancy a change from Blue but that is as different a blue to mine than you could ever get.

Nice.

If you're thiniing of yellow go the whole hog and consider Midas Halcyon. Very subltle pearl effect that looks orange in some lights without looking like a blinged up saxo.

Works well on Griffs (see profile)

Sounds like a porn actor. Paris Blue does roundabouts.

There's a distinct lack of Griffith pictures on this thread?

What are you all hiding?
