   Thanks man.....i think you should go for it. If it doesnt work out.....yellow is a good base coat for black

   love the car mate, really clean! not seen that done with the wing mirrors before either! yea i wasn't sure if wanted to go blue or yellow, my only worry was the blue wouldn't be posi blue...might stick with yellow!

   Cheers mate i appreciate it, suprisingly mate the blue was a pretty good match imo,,it wasnt too light as some are and it was a dull blue either,,pleased with the result it gave
