What colours your car?

I've gone for pink and black on mine, my boyfriend's gone for Kawasaki green and black.  :laugh:

Currently in the paint shop, be interesting to see the results, I think it will be a bit hit n miss, lol.

Did the work on it myself, and had it water transferable printed for £85. Lots of different designs available.
