An idea to toy with in the future I think.
My frame is in primer at the moment and will probably be black before I see it again.
Doesn't matter.
Thanks guys.
:D

I painted mine in Hammer finish. it's really durable and looks better than black. I painted them Blue when I was going to paint the car blue but I have changed my mind and will paint them red Hammer finish......

Not a great move at about $25 a litre. but for $50 I painted front and back.... and included some other stuff like the van's fuel tank and other underside stuff etc. and have half a litre left for touch-up's.

I like the hammered finish paint's you can touch them up really easily and you don't know theirs been a touch-up after it dries.

I hope for his sake he was taking the piss :? :?

because that isn't a stock subframe, in fact it has really expencive rare titanium paint as sold on EBAY as "RARE RARE SUPER RARE TITANIUM RARE PAINT OH YEAH IT"S RARE --- DID I MENTION IT"S RARE"

then again it could be the special red wheel nuts :D :D
