mk 6 piece fibreglass in black and the rest polished ali or massey ferguson red if the ali isnt up to a good enough finish.

Dark blue GRP, ali sides and back.

I've thought about a cool spray job but as I intend to drive this thing hard I'm always gonna be worried about the paintwork, one ding and it's a respray job, but with self coloured GRP u just buy a new piece.

End of the day it's a 'tool' not a work of art. It's bad enough with GRP in the garage and worrying about scratches.

was gonna have mine carbon wings black interior and magenta bodywork, Tiger beet me to it, serves me right for telling them i guess, so my new colour scheme i am keeping under my hat....

Dark Black nose, night sky black front wings, coal black rear wings, extremely black rear panel, black with a hint of black bonnet....oh and ali sides (may paint black!!)

By the time you have stripped your donor, I would have bought 'how to build your own spaceship for 250 credits' and wondering what colour to paint it

what's your budget, I haven't seen one complete in carbon fibre yet (has anyone else?)

i guess white with stripes or mr blobby style would be shall we say 'unique' ?!
