I should be picking them up tommorow after a spray up. I have seen them once before the decals were applied and they were flattened off for the pin stripes. Now they have two coats of laquer and apparently they shine according to Scrapp's

Heres a teaser
But I know you get the drift.:D:D

Your right theres no foolin' you guys :rolleyes::rolleyes:

They are shiney though. I wanted metalflake but would have too raised edge. Just about to go and get them from down by the seaside.:thumbsup:

Wheels are too precious to paint at the moment. Would prefer to keep a standard set and source another pair.

I got the panels on. Please note the red is very hard to get metallic. It shines red but does look at times a burgundy wine colour. Sunshine is its friend.
I painted the air intakes black for a different look too.
Hope you like the look. The green is awesome.:D:D

Not sure if I like the screen but worth painting at time. Much prefer the carbon one.

Does the gold stripe go round the tank painting as well as the tail?

Nice work Albie

Like Walpole I would prefer the red/white side, if it was all one colour rather than tricolour

Roll on Arrow Mill in 2 weeks :woot:

Even if the opinion is was dire .. all that matters is that you like them anyway...
My bikes going to be I hope a mobile disco ball.. most people will say that's vile but as long as it gives me a grin I am a happy bunny.

Each to their own I say!
Its very nice my dear.. I really like that shiny green.... :0) is pretty.

Still time mate if you think its the in colour. I did that with the s4 as martin may notice. That white was also mint green and a subtle pink tinge.

No I think I will leave it and a new colour next season :mand::mand:
