Hi Guys, I'm new to this forum. I have just purchased my first T25 and I am wanting to change the colour. Luckily I am a qualified panel beater and painter so I won't have any problem in doing the job myself....
What colours would you go for? 2tone? Or just one colour?
What colour should I paint my Vw T25 Sheldon high top!??

hiya...and welcome to the nut house!
coulour choice is very personal.
Then there is the keep it original debate....dunnp if that is relevant for your van.....bit youhave to drove ot....so you best like it! lol
we all loke a noce pant job...whether multi coloured or a simgle block colour.
Personally, I don't think they suit two tone lke the bays amd splits as there is no obvious dividing line bewtween the top and bottom on the front.
But some clevereople have done sone nice stuff in two tone!
