good job, maybe you should do the rocker cover in the same hue, would look awesome also the bumpers and strips in asteroid silver, other than that good sh*t mate!

Yeah, bumpers etc should be asteroid silver for sure. Bumpers and lower half, asteroid silver. Engine bay would still look silly with a green rocker cover, the rest of it needs to be cleaned heaps more haha.. Not bad though, I was going to go this colour a fair while back, that green with a blue pearl. Never did follow through with it, as its way too outrageous for me.
