    Even though i've never seen it, what's so bad about Bordeaux metallic?

    It's a dark red wine colour which I just don't like, others may like it. The Sandman pictured below is Bordeux Metallic

    Thanks for the pic.
    I can see why some people don't like the colour.
    Is the black centre on the bonnet Sandman or Monaro?

    Congrats..... being a confirmed Sandman I would paint it in it's original colour... even though I don't like it.. It will be worth more in it's original colour and re-paints are not cheap.

    It is however your Sandman and you can do whatever you want with it.

    Hi, it is a different colour, personally i like it (that me) and personally i would keep it to its original colour.
    My Hx van is in the same boat, it not the original colour, but it only got repainted a few years ago (paint is in good condition) and i wish they had painted it back to its original colour (mandarin red). in the meantime, their is plenty other things to correct.

    Least with my ute, it is the correct colour, valencia orange (they even left a section where the original
    paint colour) but I would like to put the black out section back to ute and van.
    the guy I bought it off, didn't like the black out section.

    Bill
    At the end of the day, its your choice, your sandman, enjoy the project and have fun with your pride an joy.
    Don't Come Knocking If This Van's Rocking
