Very nice sir. It's better that you don't go to HIN, that way you don't rush it. And possibly miss something up.. Leaving stuff to the last minute suck.

The bay is painted a flat grey with a clear coat over it.

Not everyone likes the two tone bays, it confuses the eyes a bit.

Then again I build these things for myself but thank you for the comment.
