unless you want to paint he engine bay i'd go for another red so it doesn't look odd when you pop the bonnet. either that or get the wing painted to match and sort out any little bad bits and put a few coloured laquer top coats on it to make it look really deep and a bit different. or add some red metalflake to make the thing glow!

how much do we think it'd cost just to sort out the crappy wing and then possibly add something over the top? does anybody know of any good bodyshops around cheshire or oxford area? thanks
