I actually think a powder coated matte bronze could look nice. Not really outrageous or lairy though.

Yeah, give it a polished lip and it could look very interesting indeed!

It's just Photoshop - very easy when you know how!

My wife reckons I'm going through a mid life crisis if I put these on  :signLOL:
She reckons bright yellow though.
Those pics you put up are awesome, but not really lairy enough - the yellow looks more like gold, and the green is quite dark.  I'll have to try and play around with photoshop, but than I'm no good at it  :sad1:

If you've got Photoshop I'd be more than happy to send the file over, then you just need to change the colour of the layer. You can play to your hearts content!

Whatever colour you choose your have to do the mirrors to match IMO ......   Lime green and black looks good!
