    Man what the hell is with the colour coordination in this, the green does look pretty good, but why the blue???? And why the red in the engine bay???? Can't wait to see the whole thing resprayed though.

    yea. i know it looks a bit colourful and too much but the seat covers were of my old celica and had them on there before i started painting interior green. i will be getting rid of them as i want it all green and black inside and most likely green outside or black.. engine bay is that colour because Red goes faster..lol nah could not find green high heat paint or engine enamel. so red will do was going to do it black.
