I'm assuming your asking about painting the frame white.

I know some people like it, but YUK!

I know it's not original, but if I could choose a frame colour it would be either metallic red or gun metal grey.

white frames are sexy Smile mine hasn't faded to yellow at all, but just make sure you either get a very good 2 pack job get it powdercoated and put clear contact over parts that will get chipped (underneath lower a-arms, side of frame) this doesn't tend to be a problem when PCed

STILL FOR SALE, YOURS FOR JUST 8500! haha and yes the white plastics do eventually fade to yellow but it takes about 3-4 years from what i've seen of the blaster ones
