**CraigGreen** · 06-10-2007 17:59

Looks metallic Grey here. LOL

Hope its as nice as it looks Keith. (Envy)

**KeithRobinson** · 06-10-2007 21:23

Its not 888 blue, Its not even a vauxhall colour. I was going to stick with the standard helious blue, but Ade said its a nightmare to paint, and i trust his opinion.

I also sent my Plug cover to another painting Genius, Nick Jackson. And he kindly sent me this pic today of the finished product. Again the aim for the engine is a Classy better than standard finish, with a nice rich metallic silver rocker cover (which ade is painting) and a Red Plug cover.
