well the red I saw was a metalic so no good...
GMC torch red is nice but might not be able
to get it mixed as it's a US colour..

Could I put this forward:

Posted Image

Only to get you to look at the Audi reds as one passed me on the motorway yestereday and in the sun it looked the most gorgeous bright shade of red I've ever seen.

As for the white, phwoar! It's looking great freddy.

On a side note, I'm a bit annoyed with myself, I didn't realise you were in Leicster, I was there on Sunday collecting a cylinder head and I would have loved to pop in and see the Rat! Oh well, hope to see it at some shows :(.

EDIT: Another good example:

http://www.seriouswh...fa-1280x960.jpg (EDIT: Changed it to a url, didn't realise it was so big!)

I like it alot because it goes warmer in the sun and doesn't go pink.
