    No mate where they Join the car will be Saffron now.... I've kind of reversed the look, when you look at it from the front the grey plastic holding the Mirrors on will be Gold with a nice Gold line running under the Mirrors... Then when the large plastic bit on the back of the mirror is Carbon Wrapped in Black it should set it off nicely

    Cheers Biff, the Grill was Adrians idea so it's thanks to him that the Front end has that Black Gold effect... Martin did a great job of putting the idea on paper so to speak... I've had a few PM's about the Grill so i hope Martin is getting some enquiries

    You can usually get away with a slight miss match in colour when it's on a seperate panel, provided it is only a SLIGHT miss match. Looking Great Ian!, can't wait to get started on the paintwork on mine!.

    I know what you mean Craig, Lucky for me it all went back on and matches perfectly.... Looks stunning now, i'm really pleased with the result. I just have to contact Martin now about wrapping my Splitter and Wing Mirrors. You seem to be really enjoying getting your teeth into your new project lol.... You have been away for to long mate
