	Hello rspsteve, welcome to RR The Sprite looks great, it'd be even better with an black and silver plate. The black roof make a refreshing change from white. Can we see some pics of your RSP??

	Blimey...when I saw the first pics, I was going to congratulate you on it's originality....I nearly went as far as to say it'd be a shame to modify it. Then I saw the later pics and I take it all back...GREAT JOB! I think if it were mine I'd be investing in some less obvious plates. £69 (just over £200 by the time it's on after transfer fees etc.) could have you running a non-age-related plate: www.newreg.co.uk/home/search/search_results/l0/0/isting/none/none/bargain_plates/1/bargain.html
