Woah!! keep it! looks so nice! youv'e done a blinding job @ spraying it too! looks well smart!


thanks a lot :D took me 2 weeks to finally pluck the courage to get on a gun again - I haven't sprayed for about 4 years and last time it didn't come out so well - a decent gun has made soooooooooooooooo much difference.

a lot of credit to my work buddy Sylvester too - he kept an eye on me and made sure i didn't make a gash of anything.

The blue with the faded graphic on the roof look great, I really like it.

Whatever you do don't change it - especially to pink, orange or brown!
