Black or Dark grey?

[gibsonr9]

Hi,

Im just about to start building a Tamiya Maclaren MP4/6 (1/12) and I read somewhere that its better to use dark grey paint rather than black? Kinda wondering what the suspension arms etc would look like?

Any suggestions would be good?

Thanks

Here is a good build thread. Carbon fiber was used in this one.

Here is the real thing.Looks like some of the linkage is carbon, and another is not

Hi Bud,

Ive seen that. The person who built that changed the struts from carbon to black because he had wrong info?

I think Im going for dark grey now!!

Model Master has an engine gray. Maybe that mixed with black will give you what you need, if you can't find a color you like.
