All mixed up....

And on the tyre. The pictures don't really capture it like the human eye, but you get the idea ;)/>

Different! Might have been better with blue and gold to match the Nighthawk pearl colours :D

I think it looks cool! Well done. The world would a horrid place if we all did the same mundane things.

I do wonder Lloyd how long the glitter will last, also, how did thee apply?

V1 was made with glitter glue and it stayed on ages. The trouble with the glitter glue was that the colouring was in the glue, rather than the glitter, so didn't look very good.

Once the tyre gel has dried and can't see no reason why the glitter in V2 won't stick around for a while.

Applied with a cut up sponge.
