    Having said that if the price of carbon fibre comes down I would still consider it just because it looks so damn good!

    No black wouldn't look right, would need to be carbon fibre, looking for tartan paint as well if anyone knows where to get that.

    Obviously you need two paints; one for carbon and one for fibre. You also need a mask to get them in the right patten.
