apfelanni, his control panel has aspects of grey in it, so yes it does match.
You made the right choice cobrakai, I really like the colour scheme you've chosen. The only thing I would have changed is the bottom front panel, I would have continued the grey colours down there to go with the top. Perhaps just the panel doors.
But that's just me being picky.
Overall, awesome renovation! :applaud:

It's still black... also, white bezel and black body? Nah I don't know... I prefer my Candy cabs the traditional way. :blah:

I agree but, it is an improvement.

I have some questions if you don't mind... since most people don't talk about restoring candy cabs. I recently picked up a cab that needs some serious TLC.
- Can you tell me the process you went through to sand and paint the cab so it doesn't looked sratched?
- How did you paint it? Most decent paint jobs I have seen used a car paint sprayer...
