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.

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

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' ?!





beware, I've got yellow skin
