Last night at 9pm it was white. At 11pm it was out of the car and ready for paint. An hour ago it became silver. Thankyou valspar radiator paint.
what colours are yours?

I just leave mine as clean unpainted alloy, at least in part because I dislike what tends to happen to painted alloy down the line if the prep isn't absolutely spot on.
Yours looks far better silver than white though IMO, although I've got to ask, what on earth is that plate covering the injectors/fuel rail etc about?

Indeed the silver seems to look better and with any luck will stay cleaner for longer, white was a bad choice for this.
The plate is a custom cover as are the the other two above and below. Are you not a fan then?

Not to my tastes, no, but each to their own

Fair play, to be honest it is nice to hear other 306 owners views.
