Post by: Coyoteboy on January 04, 2011, 05:12:40 pm: I think it'd look better if the car I'd overlayed the colour on was white rather than orange, but the RS green is a bit marmitey - it either works or it doesnt. Might look better if the 185 had black vents like my white one does, breaks up the rather enormous bonnet a bit.

Post by: gt4gordon on January 06, 2011, 09:59:52 am: The wife hates the look of the 185 as it is. So might be worth doing to annoy her a bit more. >:( ;D

Post by: gt4gordon on January 06, 2011, 08:42:45 pm: It is a bit. But I love the shape of them. The wife goes by the registration and cause its old its a heap in her book.
