it's called taste. airbrushing looks ridiculous. you would fit better at the commodore sites, because taste is generally what the v6 commodore owners lack. |

well from an objective point of view - there is a massive chance of it getting keyed. also, it will show stone chips and stuff real claerly. |

you want to take away the resivour??? how will you fill up the radiator?
i think moving it somewhere but when you fill it up it will have to be higher then the tank itself, apart from that, its looking scary |

Why are they going back to bare metal? it looks as if the original paint was in good nick. All that place needed to do was rub back the orginal colour and apply primer over the top.
I have only seen cars go back to bare metal if the paint is shagged or there is rust underneath.
