Skywarped and I have discussed this via email. I watched T.M.I. today and I still think that the grey parts need to be shiny. Mirror shiny.

I couldn't find any metallic flake yellow paint, so I just applied the Reprolabel stickers, a little silver paint and then hit it with a shiny clear coat. Glad to see how well the gold actually looks though. Keep up the good work.
