Very nice...from the photos you'd be hard pushed to tell the difference between Tanzanite Blue and Black. I also like the wheels...They'd look good on mine :)

Thats one of the reasons for buying it, I love the colour, I bought a machine polisher, the proper thing and the paint has come up great, took one day to get the interior clean, and a day to machine the paint, just need to Teflon wax the paint now to seal it.

The polisher was brilliant all the scratches in the paint are now gone!!! its also great on stone chips, fill the chip with paint than machine it down and it becomes invisible!!!

Think that I will get a wife number 5 to practice on first, then buy a car, if she comes up to scratch:confused:
