I'm thinking chilled red, or ultra blue, or Stirling silver? smile))))

It depends how good a match the red is otherwise I would go sterling silver personally

I like the gold but for performance you should choose a colour that is as light as possible as it radiates less heat.

Says he with black manifolds on his car......

I had the chilled red, which I think looks good but it is not a match to Rosso. They will be fitted next week at Dove House.

As previously stated my 430 Spider went into Dove House with Ed last Tuesday morning and picked it up today. Had a full service, A P Manifolds fitted, new Capristo rear exhaust brackets fitted and a new MOT. I have only driven for a short time while I warmed it up and then a bit of a blast down the Rushden by-pass, but what a difference. This is the best the car has performed since I purchased it last October, it feels tighter, smoother on pick up and maybe quicker, plus the oil pressure is up half a bar. It was not low before but it is higher now. I am aware that new oil will assist with this but the old oil should have only done about 2.5K miles from the service book. Its a big thumbs up for Dove House and Ed and I will have to buy him a drink.

I purchased them from Vivid Racing in the States as per Voice's suggestion, I pleaded that I was a skint Brit and did get a small discount. Good service received but you do have pay import duty and the pain in the backside Vodka & Tonic. I also had them coated over here.
