Plenum should be standard colour, unless you do the injector side too
Rocker cover looks pukka though

Its not 'that' bad.. but you gotta do it in two stages, Fuse, then wings
Then once its done, you gotta go round to inspect and find anything that might be wrong... takes about 14 days to do one Harrier, from getting it in, prepping to fuly painted and stenciled
