Ok guys we did have a slight problem with the covering of the tint, like we had to paint the whole thing again :Grrrrrr:

But its done now, it was still in the shop being polished when I left, so no outside pics.

How about this tho :D

Which purple Daniel? Cosmos (as seen on SS etc) or Ultra Violet (HSV colour).

Both are ok, though I would lean toward UV, has better highlights.

The reason why I went with this colour is because it is a 2005 colour from Range Rover, and it isnt Green :-)

There are only so many reds and blues you can do, then it gets to the stage where you start looking for something different.

Im happy do try any colour, we did this to the last one.

Midnight purple.

That purple in the first pic looks very tasty. As for the MG Blue one...thinking that front number plate may hit the odd speed hump?
