Manu Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 Thanks guys for your comments, I let the spinner shiny to make a contrast with the blades. The kit is more matt than it seems (because of the brightness of the lights.) Cheers, Manu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
