I've been sporting a pair of patent burgundy DM boots lately - go Burgundy, bang on trend

Fantastic work Mark. Love all the colour schemes and I would find it difficult to choose one!

I think the blue/grey stripe is edging ahead
I've tweaked it a bit more to add some stickers in.
For the moment this is my fave - but the burgundy could edge past towards the end. I've got a few months before I need to decide

Mark I have a solution to your problem. Paint the car that lovely petrol blue colour and then wrap rather than paint the strip. That way you can change it later to a different scheme

Yes I might do that Brendan - that's how I've done the orange stripe

Looking good Mark, all you got to do is take the red paint off the wheels and you're there!

Getting annoyed now.
First thought about getting a respray in slate grey, but then after seeing a 911 in that 356 colour decided on that instead.
My respray won't happen for a couple of years, so now I will just be copying that other bloke
First time I saw that colour was on a 911 discussed in MPD, most people gave it a bit a slagging so I wouldn't bother. Keep the silver, you don't see many of those.
