Don't knock it... I like white too

Make all the excuses you want, it's still just plain lazy or a total lack of imagination
And nobody needs to see multiple views of a plain white paint job.

They look like the standard 410/410R ones, They don't come in the new kits.

Edit: also they are steel not alloy or so I was told

A local lad to the Ludlow Club did it for me. Turned it around in a week and was very reasonably priced. I'm not sure if he wants to expand to doing shells outside the club though, but I'll ask

I'll take some better pics on and off. The kitchen light wasn't the best at 11pm last night lol

Nice lookin shell there G, it does the body justice

Waiting until they release spare shells so I can send mine off to be in my colours, but for now it's in white, and I know some people don't like seeing cars in just white

So not posting pics of the car yet.

Good subtle upgrades too, I want the steel shock mounts, at least for the front as my EDS driver is difficult to fit on to nut.

+1 Daz comments, I like white on the 210 shell. Although paint with care as I once did a hotbodies d4 shell in just peral white and it came out like the urinal at the local pub....some whites can be a little....how do we say it in Dudley....pissy lol...I think the gents white 210 looks good and not everybody likes the same thing as Daz said.

Whatever the scheme, the shapes nice and the shells look sleek and tough

Pearl whites are tricky, I tend not to use them as they do have the tendency to look like they have a yellow tinge. Also when photographed they can look out of focus ? Camera's autofocus doesn't seem to like them. You're better off putting a white flake on and then using a straight white.

Anyway... back on topic
