    In the 70s and 80s I didn't like the factory stripes or any stickers for that matter on my cars. Now my thoughts have gone 180. I think there is so much area on Sandman's that they need a little something to break up such big painted panels and the hockey stick stripes look cool and suit the Sandman's. Not sure if I will go the whole hog and get the tailgate sticker. Probably also go with the small Sandman front guard stickers for the HZ Sandy look.

    Every time I go out to the shed and look at the three samples and think maybe the Impulse blue might be a fraction too dark, then the next time it looks much lighter. When it get light reflections it almost look like Deauville blue and other times you would swear it Windsor blue. Impulse blue looks so rich when you look at the sample straight on and with the purl it has so much more variation with reflections it just jumps out at you. My daughter come around today so I quickly showed her the samples and she picked Windsor blue, my son wants it Impulse blue but he is biased because of his Impulse blue clubby. And the wife is now leaning towards the Impulse or Deauville but likes Windsor. I think I have started an argument at home. Bugger I might have to go and consult my mum Or I could say stuff you all and paint it nipple pink.
