Title: Paint job

I like this.  If I had a new trike worth spending the money on, I'd love a paint job by Ace!

That's unusual.  :)

I like the more subtle kind of paint - I've seen a lot of paint jobs that were incredibly artistic and extremely well done - but detract from the overall look of the bike/trike.  To my eye, this has about the right amount of interest.

Very true Bobbi. The choice of colour, (s), & which parts are finished in which colours can really make or break a bike. I've chickened out of having murals done on any of mine cos I've yet to find anything I'd want to look at every time I'm out on the bike. A bit like tattoos. Wouldn't mind a bit of swirly hotrod pinstriping on the tank of the trike but, to be honest, I like it's simplicity & unfussiness so will probably keep it plain. 
Right, time for bed for me, so g'night people. Try not to break anything while I'm gone & last one to leave, turn the lights out please.  ;)
