For me it was either white or black (no grey areas!). I actually quite like I think it's the Titanium colour - it's on the Ariel sequential demo car - looks almost black but it has metallic in it. But prefer black in all honesty.

Silver to me looks dated. I had to have my car machine polished to give it a nice shine, it didn't come like that out of the factory.
I think the titanium looks grey, if the sequential car is darker than battleship grey its probably gunmetal ? All a bit confusing really ..

Chassis colour is a one time choice.

Body panels though - every couple of months in my experience.

I think the silver looks great with the red but away from the red, I prefer the other combos. Black or gunmetal seems more flexible with other colour options.

As I think you know, I went gunmetal grey with full carbon with the red decals.

If I have the money, I’ll probably do as Hedge mentioned and look to get the callipers and hubs colour matched

Part of me would love to get the frame in a pearl Bianchi Celeste with carbon mudguards and bodywork but Tom guessed nearly 3k for the frame....
