Righto... Still thinking about my paint job choices... And seeing the matt black fto in japan has got me thinking i may be able to do the same.
Choices are:
- Light blue with Black/CF roof
- Matt Black with wide arches
-Pearl Orange with Black/CF Roof
Cast your vote and let me know what you think.
remember i bought the FTO and modified it purely to be unique.
So i sont want a run of the mill paint job.
If you need good deal on photography, let me know.

Not a fan of it either... Just a personal preference..
I dont want "just" a colour... i want something way different.
mind you i have never liked matt black before... but the fto looks sexy

I think i'm going to have to do a body fix up on some of my paint chips ... but I will get some quotes for a proper fix up first seriously though,
I think any of those colours would look sweet as ... 'tis really up to you ... though when I get to the point of respraying my car I'm going to go all out & get pearlescent / colour change / thermal paint ... going to be custom airbrushing it myself as well...

ANYTHING BUT ORANGE
The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.
