This one looks tidy even if the rear is not original?

I quite like the look of that Ted. It's 99% non standard (well maybe not quite that much but you get my drift)  but it looks bright enough.

I like it. It's the kind of thing I am doing with mine.

Replacing stuff I don't have with bits I like the look of rather than original....and making something a little different. But...and I agree with the guy that built that blue 550....not chopping stuff up so it couldn't be put back to stock in the future.
