I reckon he might have, he seemed quite addament about doing it last night, especially once you guys stirred him up. Not saying he painted it heritage green, but he probably painted it... inspite of a few. lol :P

Will I get banned if I say it reminds me of an EA GL?

j/k mate, those sides are looking awesome! Painting 'em must be a real bitch though... Paint, buff, paint, buff, on & on & on... When I did my door (an area only about the size of a mousepad, if not smaller!) it took hours and I ended up with no fingernails left due to the recut/repolishing that I repeated over & over...

the side skirts still need some buffing
that'll come after a few days.

front and rear bars may be next week, not sure.
the rear needs some work before i can spray it.
