The custom wrapping (minus the worded branding) is interesting.

Almost like dazzle cammoflauge!

HMS Weasel might look good in dazzle I think  :cool:

Not sure what sort of effect that would have on road safety mind you, if you have never seen dazzle it really does work...

They ran the exact same wheels on their mk8 GTI which was wrapped in Wehrmacht Green  :cool:

Fred, you REALLY need to do that.  I genuinely think it would look amazing!
