I've just had mine re-sprayed in white, but a really bright dimond white as there are so many dimond whites from fords you have to be very careful which one you get.

I've also had a pearl flip of violet put over her! Its a great colour and does NOT look yellow, as I hate that with some of the pearl flips your get, it makes them look like you've smoked round em for about 30 years or just gives them that dirty look!

I have to say I love the violet on her, its a House Of Colour violet from the states and its kinda one of them colours that you can't see at all when theres no sun, but as soon as the sun comes out,,,,BLING,,,,its everywhere, looks fooking stunning, one ya have to look at twice ya know to make sure you saw what you think you saw,,,,lol!!
