Please,if possible, can you post this in the reference section on the site as it would make a cool, and easy, reference when we have one of our late night schemes

I was going to do the red and white, but then the guy doing the work said if I want decent red paint its going to cost an extra R5k :? :?

So i just stuck with this colour.

Thanks guys.. I cant wait to get started :hangloose: :hangloose:
