Hmm i'll get searching.

I reckon either red or silver block,probs silver,like Jamie said yesterday might look abit chavvy. Deffo do the red top. Will look lush,especially with the bonnet open all the time.

I just got mine as clean as I could with engine degreaser and painted it with normal hammerite. Had it red hot a few times now and its still perfect.

You can actually use 2k paint and brush it on, works well, except red takes about 3 coats to get it looking good where as blue, black, silver etc is 1 or 2 coats
