Default Grey or Grey?

Alright folks

Car is needing a bit of paint and have been swithering with a few ideas. Cant make my mind up whether to keep it the same colour or change it to Urban Grey. I don't see it being a big job as full resprays go as the two colours aren't a million miles away

Anyways

1) Crystal Grey



2) Urban Grey

Keep it crystal, a colour change might make it harder to sell (if and when) plus personally I think Urban Grey looks better on photographs than in real life.

My Hawkeye is Crystal Grey? It's a Spec D 2006 mind.
Colour change=accident damage in most peoples minds. Just hassle long term so beware.
