Thanks, guys -- youv'e given me plenty of ideas.

David, I am inclined to agree with you that the brushed look is the way to go. For some unexplained reason, however, I find myself daydreaming of a vintage color scheme with big white meatballs painted in wimbeldon white. The product of a fevered mind, I guess. It does seem a shame to cover up all the pretty Polish aluminum with paint -- adds weight, too. And with a mere 600 hp, one must be concerned with maintaining the power to weight ratio
