Yeah it's different, but I love the blue! The silver stripe looks good too. I love my red stripes though, pitty mine is fadded to pink on the back, think I need to respray mine!

More Pics! Some front and side shots!

The blue looks good. Did you consider any other colour other than Grey for the stripes? Doesn't seem to do it for me 100%.

TechXR, Nah not really mate, don't know why but I've always liked the silver strips. I think it needs rims but to tie it in

Good work on the finish you got on the paint, shoulda put ticky kit on before paint!! would have looked great with EF monty door strips and chrome vinyl wrap instead of silver.. But if you're happy with it that's good!!
