Without any self interest whatsoever

I think you should go for one colour

Do you want to sell your scuttle

Damn I telegraphed that one!!!!


eccsmk - 29/3/08 at 12:24 AM

the only reason i've got multi coloured is down to a lack of funds

if i go for black ill have
both side panles (have been fitted and cut for bike exhaust)
scuttle
nose cone for sale all in kawasaki green

can't you just spray the nosecone? Got to be easier than selling and getting another one.

thats down to you,
i went purple/pink, ali sides,
then did the wing black after
still not happy went purple sides
then changed to yellow b/work,ali sides
black arches,

now i thinking kwak green bodywork,ali sides,black/kwak green wings

so its what your tastes are.

im never happy with my colours
what you need is 4 set of body work so you can change it !

I'm just having this dilemna myself, Have finally decided on rud for the main body and black for all four wings, but have been quoted £900 cash to do it, so i'm now looking for a slightly more locost option. Have to say its been the hardest choice on the whole car so far.

I don't think a two-tone appearance looks too harlequin.... Then again, having a fiddle on the westfield colour changer a black car with a green scuttle and nosecone does look better if the scuttle is painted black. Leaving the nosecone green looks quite nice to me- enhances the "face" on the car front.... Then again, it's bloody early to be up on a Saturday morning

For me the colour choice was a long and arduous process.
I still haven't ordered my bodywork and do keep having moments where I change my mind. But eventually I always come back to the original. (or should I go yellow!!)

FWIW I reckon that kwak green and black will look good. You could always get a kwak green bonnet so the front end is all one colour?

im still walking to the garage having a look
walking back changing my mind
i looked on westfield world
i quite like
green scuttle, nosecone, cycle and rear wings

again thanks folks
