Nice looking bike mate. Is it a Qingqi or a Geely? Both have the same running gear as mine so the sinski parts manual and owners guide in the hints and tips section may be of some help to you in the future.

Very nice bike mate! Just my opinion but I quite like the plain original yellow on its own.
Try starting a poll and see what others think.

How about some decals rather than spraying? At least with decals you can take them off if you don't like them or in a year or two you can get some new decals if you fancy a change.

I'm also a big fan of the US version of Pimp my ride and if you ever get the UK version in the US, you will understand why Lets just say Westwood is no Xibit even though he tries ;D

That's not bad!! Yes we get "Ride With Funkmaster Flex" which is on Discovery Men & Motors over here. I've seen a few of them, one I remember featured Nelly and his little buggy broke down. American Chopper is on Discovery Real Time although I've never watched it.
