It's purple. Probably looks great in the sun, so I look forward to seeing it. But we've got to do something about that exhaust.

Yeah, he didn't mask off the mufflers at all. You're not kidding about the exhaust. Can you say RB header ->free flow cat->catback? Oh baby!

Thanks guys. Its not quite perfect, but its pretty close. The gun clogged in a couple places, but they're hardly noticable. Wallydog, I live down in Exeter, about 45 minutes north of London.
