Default Pastel xB?

Has anyone tried painting their xB a nice Pastel color...? I'm talking glossy yellows, greens and stuff like that, but with pastel tones...

Unless I'm blind, I havent seen any on here yet... ? x_x

You know I actually like that paint job a lot! I don't think I would do that for myself, but that's a hot looking xb IMO. Is that someone here on sl?

I think the wheels would look better with the "darker lavenderererer" color like you did it.
Maybe doe the whole tail with that clear "lighterer lavender"
That little cut out in the light makes it look a little weird IMO
