Looks perfect as it is - Blue 7 All white. I'd stop at that, one of the nicest looking 7s I've seen. :thumbsup

Cheers, Peter

I thought Jon left that to match the harnesses.
I thought that but then thought what it really needs is white harnesses too :lol:
Think the white seven would look better than blue and just go for a black badge. Imho

will pop down tomorrow Jon and have a wee look at the paint for you mate.

From the pics the car looks stunning mate can't wait to see it. :thumbsup

ps don't stripe it what ever you do .but just had a thought blue badge blue grill and some small stripe like the focus st stripes in blue along the side. but not over the top. 8)

Looks very nice, Jon 8) Look forward to seeing it post-spray... I think you should resist temptation to add anything else to it (like stripes) or it will prob look too fussy (or as if it's trying too hard) IMHO.

BTW - have you fitted Armourfend/Defendall/etc to the rear wings outside the coverage of the carbon protectors? Be a shame to pebble-dash that pristine finish - and you'll be surprised how quickly that happens...
