Well as drunkn munkn said the pure black was easiest and cheapest to do and the decals where cheap at £40 for all of them so much to some people's disappointment I went with this scheme.

The panels are still with the painter but I'll maybe get them back this weekend. Pictures to follow.

7 days before I get my licence back, and I need to speak to Matt to see when he's free to do the bodywork

It looks very black in the pictures but it's not too much black when it's sitting I front of you, but the pink it very pink..... :grin:

It once back together the missus sat on it and since it's a lower seat height than her rvf she's fallen in love with it.

I guess I'll be on the look out for another '29 for her now. :roll:

Can't you just play swaps then?
