My car is getting closer and closer to getting paint. I want to paint most items body color, for example, the firewall, inner fenders, etc. I assume that the radiator support would look best body color too, but since everything is disassembled now, I don't know what to do with some of the headlight components.
Since I have an RS and the hidden headlights, what is the 'best' looking option for painting the headlamp components, headlight door mechanisms, etc. ? Does the front of the radiator support get painted body color too usually, or does it look better black ? And is it best to paint parts that contact one another or move like the hood hinges and hood latch black ? The color will probably be a candy, so I don't want to paint anything candy that might show scratches, etc.
Thanks for any advise...
