Nice job! Looks good how it is now but pretty sure painting the fuse box and air filter box would sweet too

Looks good mate....I'd be inclined to leave as is.....the black breaks it up where if you paint the fuse box and air filter box also it might be tooo much silver.

Get the guys with the pencils & textas in the photoshop thread to do it for you to see how she looks

yea good idea but unfortunately it is very hard to replicate the silver colour I personally think I looks great how it is at the moment

Yeah mate second that motion red would look horn would be a good break up in the colour scheme of things, but that's top job so far but do get the fellas over in the photoshop thread to give you an idea and maybe some other colours to mix it up :) But good job so far.

personally I hate the alloytec engine covers, look nasally as. I'd be rippin em off if I was you. They are a massive heat trap.
