    Color change

    So should I go this route?


    No real reason to just tired of the silver. Not real fond of many other colors other than OD green.... Hey I could go that way too.

    Hmm... I like glossy paint. Yellow looks pretty good on the VX, in my opinion...

    I agree the Yellow looks nice but I would rather buy a Yellow as our second VX and make mine how I want it.

    I think you'll get tired of flat black pretty quick. With that said, it's your rig. If flat black makes you happy, go for it!
    Peace.

    Paint little black 'chevy' bowties in the center of the headlights and you can drive down the street, windows down, loudly blaring Kermit the Frog - while you sing along:

    It's not that easy being green
    Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
    When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold
    Or something much more colorful like that

    It's not easy being green
    It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
    And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
    Not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
    Or stars in the sky

    But green's the color of Spring
    And green can be cool and friendly-like
    And green can be big like an ocean, or important
    Like a mountain, or tall like a tree

    When green is all there is to be
    It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why
    Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful
    And I think it's what I want to be


    After that, you can dig up a recording of "Movin' right along"
