I really like it as it is. Somehow you have got a minimalistic look going on ie not cluttered. Nice looking saph that. I'll have a look through my pics later and I'm sure I have one of yrs so I'll post it for you.

Like the stones said: PAINT IT BLACK!!!
Did it too for the same reason of always having to clean the water marks off for ages. Never looked back since.

it's an almost stealth engine bay and makes a difference from all the shiney stuff
but it's nice to compare the 2 side by side and see all the effort that you can plainly see with the shiney stuff and all the stealthy stuff that's crinkled
