Colour coded, it usually looks dodgy if not and makes the outside colour look un-original and you might have trouble if you come to sell

gloss black/ matt black, if you ever decide to change the colour in the future it wont look a mess :)

body colour or white

i wouldnt go black/dark colour as it will make leaks/stress fractures harder to spot

body colour as different bay looks like a half ass respray job use masking tape with seam sealer and it looks neat aslong as your lines are straight.
