I think you are doing a great job, and i do like the yellow, but there again i would say that because my cab is zinc yellow lol, the cab in my siggy was one i sprayed in subaru blue, and in that colour it looked really well.

 

Have you decided what colour you are doing your cab ? and are you doing any mechanical mods to it ?
