Once the garage is finished im gunna get the t5 resprayed but cannot make my mind up if i should leave the black bit or have the car full colour coded Any pics of 850's with colour coding would be great.
Cheers pete

Cheers for the pics tc as said above it does look wierd with no black bits i think the boot handle trim and door handles will get colour coded and leave the rest black
That's what I did on the black one Pete.

yeah deffinatly going to get the handles and boot trim done
Had the grey bits on the mirrors done too... knocks years off.
Really like the handles and boot trim done looks the business. As previously mensioned all the black trim colour coded on a light coloured car I dont think looks right.
Anybody with abit of paint knowledge do you reckon this could be done with aresols and get a decent finish if you got a decent shop to match the paint?
Shaun yours looks brilliant, I think it works on a black one but just not others.
Arguing is pointless....she may not be right but she's never wrong
Tell her a remap is just having your satnav updated.....
looks much better
Wish it was still mine sold it a 1.5 years ago
i agree with the bumper and door trims dont need painted,,doorhandles ect yes when colourcoded looks to similar to the s/v70 kinda robs it of 850 looks imo,
1995 854 t5r
Just digging around old threads like this, as this is my current dilemma!
Liking the look on a dark car, not so much on a light one..... and mine will be going dark.
Any more pics?
Yep black trims
Pic. before my new exhaust but in my colour Code 427 i think the colour coded trims do suit ..........the black 850 maybe tooooooo black or much of a muchness!
Yes , i know mine is V70 and you will always tell an 850 from the rear at least because of the rear centre stoplight....V70`s are high up and a strip type light
In my own opinion i think Tomcats Silver 850 looks better than the black one with all its colour coding........but then we are all different!
Just to add my `98 T4 in Red was better than my 1.8 X40`s.

When I repaint mine its getting colour coded, looks awsome on dark cars
If you need a hand painting Pete give me a shout pal
Some coloured coded trims look good and others look just as good unpainted, all depending on the colour I guess. All the above cars look awesome though
