He will be doing mine like that, not that he knows yet... He lives in the Northwest, don't know how often he is on here. His forum name is Gundam 69. If you want I can ask him a price to do it for you. Let me know if you can't contact him and I will kick his ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably as I am colourblind I didn't really like the red decals. The infill panel on mine I am undecided on the colour, whether to have the panel itself painted Blue or Silver and have the irmscher in the opposite colour. Or keep the panel black and have the irmscher painted on in blue or silver but very faint. I think I will have to take photos when it comes to deciding and photo shopping the different combinations. I take it you are keeping your car standard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
