Nobody will know will they?! Do it! But you'll need that funky paint reader to get the colour right won't you?

UPDATE 12-07-09 : Tailgate Time

Found a very local tailgate which is pretty straight apart from where he reversed into a bollard and has bent the bottom in so took a punt and hopefully gona get the pin gun on it and see if that works enough to bring the line out straight and then fill, prime, paint.

Think it will really finish off the back end.

Great stuff - as you said, will finish the rear off perfectly - especially if you can do that rear light trick!

Syraing the VW writing the same as the rest or doing it in a different colour to stand out?

In the rear window? Not so practical when you've got bikes in the back though I suppose...
