Installed Anderson 400 series black windows, and trying to decide on the exterior window trim color. GC painted two options, one is black trim, other is smaller trim painted to match the gray of the house color.
All feedback is appreciated!

Comments (8)I disagree about the shutters, and it's not what David was asking about. David, some paint websites allow you to upload a picture of your home and "paint" it different colors.
