    Added more BLUE to the BLUE!

    You guys know you want/need a BLUE MM






    My 'Paint Guy' sanded everything down, taped, painted, then cleared over EVERYTHING. The clear really sharpens up the remaining Red Lens.
    Set me back 2 bills. Best mod for the BLUE yet.

    Arrow Getting thee

    Should have painted the lower slit unless you added a light or intend to.

    From the pictures the paint looks a shade off? Then again it a photo on a web site

    The $200. job is about rgiht, it is a lot work taping and sanding.

    Now loose the "M" on the trunk badge

    I left it like it is so I would not lose the reflector. Blue MM's have a high accident rate, remember And mainly because it would look silly painted, unless the lower slit on the reverse light was painted as well.

    The paint is spot on, its just the pic.

    Steve, that IS Earins reflection

    Funny, all this hype about Blues. MY DTR came with MATCHING rear lights.

    Hmm, go figure.

    Looks nice Zack. I like that addition to the (Other) three colors.
