The important thing is you do a good job. If you are not stripping the car so engine bay, inside etc stay silver but outside is a different colour, that would affect value IMO
What colour are you going for?
Cheers

wont affect the value, unless its got history, pictures,
mag features etc or a very rare colour to start with
and you paint it white etc.. .
Go for it……

A very 70`s colour, and very rare to see it on a car full stop.

Re: How does a colour change affect value?
JoeB said
I'm going to get a full respray for the golf sooner or later, its diamond silver at the moment. However i've never really liked silver, and have another colour in mind that i would like. its an original period vw colour, and my question is, will changing the colour drastically affect the value of the car?
oppinions much appreciated

For some reason a mk1 Golf in silver looks crap, but looks superb in a TR4. I had my TR4 repainted from red to silver in 1995 and has probably put the value up.
How about painting it Gold?
