Looks awesome cabbie, that's certainly gonna get a few looks and pictures taken on the Mayday run, with your attention to detail i'm sure the cosmetics will be the icing and cherry on top.

Previously at component stage I thought the blue discs and water pipes looked hideous with the gold but now it's together think it balances out the gold perfectly.
Your manufacturering abilities are beyond reproach but that doesn't mean you have artistic abilities does it?

From what we can see though that could also be the case.

It looks a treat!

I'd still reserve judgement on the red bits though for the time being, although I have a feeling that's going to come good in the end too.
