White high top or body colour? Opinions please

Post by Andythesweep »

My autohomes high top is going to need another coat of paint soon,was thinking of a cream colour,use the same green as the body,or stick to white
Do any of you have body colour high tops?
Have any of you gone a totally different colour with your high tops?
Pics please!

My personal opinion...
I think High tops that are the same colour as the vans are a little too much. The different colour roof breaks them up a bit, but again just my opinon.

I'd normally agree with you jim,but looking at pics of kevtherev's van has got me thinking about matching high top colour,I think especially as my autohomes top compliments the shape of the van

on your van I wouldnt. it looks really well , the colour is mint (no pun)and if you added any body colour it would make the van look larger and more like a commercial.
