What, her rear or the coupe's? hehe

Seriously though, I like the colour coding bits you've done. Good find on the paint. Is it ok for high temps (on the coil cover)?

I do like the extra dash colour coding, and the paint find. I'm slowly accumulating Plus style parts myself, for my new Sprinty, but could only find them in ABS at ~£89 from Poland ? Do the Zender ones come up often on the bay?
