My a4 is black/gunmetal. Twists the mind. Its an awesome color. But w/ black you can only go so far as of mods. Silver can get more creative.

Leave it silver. And, about the DV... MJM Autohaus was pretty good to work with when I got mine. I got a forge splitter. But I'm almost positive they have a few different options for you. Just a thought.

I would say silver, but again I am biased.

Shouldn't you be deciding your self if you wanted to re-paint your car because after all, it is your car.
It's all up to you to decide what you want to do to it. What if I like the color pink and say you should pain it pink?
Just a thought. [sm=smiley20.gif]

Unless you have lots of time and money, keep it silver. A small bit of accents in black would set it off if you want something differnt. A black roof would be one example

Kriptonic...., yeah slightly biased lol. I was just thinking of painting mine black, but now I don't know hearing all these people like it silver. I thought it was too common. My other thoughts are waiting and saving my money for modding the S4 to come in the near future.

ya i wanted to paint my car black when i first got it because it hated it but then it grew on me. i'm going to paint mine the same color if i ever need a paint job. there's really no need to paint your car unless you absolutely want to, and if you do paint it paint it like mine paint code is LY1T. hehehe
