Expect to be seeing you in the next Tango advert!
Bit bright for my tastes i prefer the stealth approach, but it looks to be a awsome paint job.

Cheers,

We can\'t wait for the shows, what\'s the first show of the year?

We will be bring the MX5 Turbo as well though, if you don\'t mind.

With regards to the colour, well we spend the day getting high  :wiggle  in the back of a car paint shop mixing up colours and this is what we ended up with - a bit of a gamble  :eek .

Its awesome Mate, really gonna stand out in the sun.

But please dont put that awful thing that covers the rear lights on. Not a fan of it and think it spoils the rear.

Love what you\'ve done with the bonnet.

Awesome.

Like it! very nice, almost glow in the dark! we\'\'ll see that one coming, agree with Gareth about the rear light cover moulding, but like the rest of the body kit, especially the Bonnet! did you fill in the air duct slot in the front
bumper or is it a different nose?
Agree with Kieron,  change the jap tyres a.s.a.p.
nice one!

According to the link below we are at Brooklands on Sunday 2nd April.

Don\'t forget Brooklands is the one event whereby MRC pays the admission fee for every Full Club Member who attends.

Very nice, I like it a lot.  :cool

The only bad part is that its close to the colour mine is getting painted in right now. Luckily my bumper etc is different and other parts which are being built will mean they are`nt twins.

At least I have an idea how mine will look though.

(and NO mine is not House of Kolor paint either)
