thank you , erm well as a young bloke i have no colour co-ordination. i did want the car lime green! but we will see haha knowing me i will have it lime green and keep the engine blue haha!

although! my inlet plenums are going to be white (the ones pictured) and then the center air runner that will be yet again blue

I think it will look good
