Aye, I'm thinking it'll work as a change fly from the subdued GM Dabbler on the point mate. Just swapping the colours around, hardening the profile and it'll catch their eye. And there was me promising myself I wouldn't tie up a load of new stuff.

Love the looks of that one and the wing is off the hook, very buggy.
Can't remember ever seeing a GP wing, will have to change that.
