I've considered a roller paint job in drab olive with camo. Yours is like urban camo and quite cool.

thanks Kirky - did it in blues to save changing the v5 and used this as inspiration for the pattern

It is honestly looking very cool ;-) obviously silver is still better :-P
Some cream paint on the wheels would look good.

I thought about the log book issue a while after posting. It's not much of an issue with the low value and type of vehicles they are though.

What a car to take inspiration from too. An E46 M3 on BBS CH's!

So heres a couple of the pics now the 1.6 is in




you can tell its out of a vitara as it says so on the top ;)



the exhaust manifold will get replaced for the vitara one after the big jimny event as it will need a new custom downpipe which will get made in stainless to match the rest
