Pewter (like silve and white) responds well to a bright accent color.. My choices in order would be red, blue, orange (would be different <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> ) or even purple.. lol
The key is that its called an ACCENT color for a reason.. dont overdue it.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> -- you can check the pics in my sig for an example.. I used to have red calipers and it looked VERY good with the pewter.. now my red is confined to the engine area and touches around the interior..
Good luck <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

a bright blue, or orange. Or both?? Depends on your taste... but both look good IMHO

Anyone have any pics of a Light Pewter with Orange Accents??? Looking to start some simple dress ups (calipars, engine compartment, etc...) Sounds like a good color scheme, just would like to see it first....... :-)

TBaGZ...I think I saw you today in Rochester today. Were you traveling south on Scottsville Rd. today and took a left onto Jefferson by RIT? If so, I was the guy in front of you in the '84 Caprice <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Drop me a line or an email and we will hook up sometime soon.
