I'm painting my car these holidays in a burgundy with a flake through it. I am still undecided wether to color code the front and rear bars or to leave them silver does any one have pics of a burgundy vl's with and with out color coding.

Its one of them colours what looks good when its cloudy/rainy or when the sun shines directly on it. When its cloudy or rainining it looks a dark maroon. Directly in the sun it looks more of a red with the red flake showing. But when its in daylight but not in the sun it looks a seedy brown.
