Im thinking i'll keep it black i was even going to keep the dents in the tank as the paint is really nice and will give it a more old school feel maybe? Otherwise it was going Colbolt blue and white wheels.

What you think.

My mates a pro photographer and we taking it to a skatepark but we need to take 3 or 4 extra people as i wanna get it on top of the half pipe for some cool pics and i DON'T wanna drop it lol

How do you mean a headliner btw?

Ah lol doh :doh:

I might get some boarders or bmxers to do tricks in the fore or background which will look cool.

I'm also getting some checker strip to run down the tank and tail, and having a 78 painted in old school font on the tail(Any suggestions on a cafe style font would be gratefully received as i can't make up my mind), 78 for my and the bikes year of birth :D

I'm sticking with the gun metal grey wheels with the black body as the paint is chipless on both and got them for £25 each :thumbsup:
