Here are some piccies for you guys, in some of them the flash was too bright to see the pearl. And when the flash wasn't on it makes the pic quite dark but you can actually see the pearl 👍

I can't wait to have it on the road! Very very excited. I did end up with 17 inch wheels pictured below. Should look sexy 🤘 We are putting the front end in today which has a new stering box, new adjuster thingys and something else. And also putting in the new suspension :thumb

What do you mean by donk karmen? lol
