I would of done it completely silver or left the scratches on, not to my taste (the paint scheme). I'm sure as usual the marksmanship on the paint work is second to none.

i wanted to get the flip again and just blow paint in where it was keys, but paint not being made now, so this was my other idea, i think its wored well, not cost me anything cos its the colour i used to do peoples wheels re furbs!

Awful sorry. Colours don't go AT all. Would have been better off spraying the whole car a new colour.

i thought of that but just seem to cover the perfectly good flip on bottom half with normal boring colour! i had silver in the shed so thought would use that, almost did it smoke gray on top half but was worried i didnt have enough!

I like it, I didn't at first in the photos with the suspension in the raised position but the more I look at it the more I like it; I think it will contrast better in brighter sunlight as well
