Snakeskin in 50mm, similar to hammered.

Cheers, it was (for the most part) a joy to build up.
You've got me looking at metal mudguards now, not sure about polished, but VO do a 50mm snakeskin (polished) or 52mm zeppelin (polished or black), considering the snakeskins, maybe.
Honjos seem very difficult to get hold of, and I'm not paying the Sim Works money for black Honjos. -
Well I do have fairly low self-esteem.
For those self respecting types what is the go to mudguard? -
What's the problem with Bluemels? Sure they're not the prettiest of mudguards, but they keep the spray and muck off my body and quite a lot of my bike when a set of flaps are added, and due to the way I have to store my bike, they are fairly flexible.
-
I'll try to get one in focus and outdoors tomorrow.
-
Gonna go with Bluemels if lbs can get em, want black 50(ish)mm, without paying Honjo prices. Think VO do a set, Zeppelins, so that's an alternative.

@amey, I can't seem to take a good picture if I try, angles always seem wrong, then again using a £75 tablet isn't doing me any favours, may be time to buy a camera, and watch some online tutorials.
Mr Pink is awaiting a deep clean, then possibly for sale.
@Cupcakes, yep bars, brakes and saddles, always the bits that make you think "ooh, I wouldn't have done that", but venturemax bars are super comfy, the brakes, well we'll see (needed to save money somewhere). I've done all I can to improve them, Koolstop salmon pads and Jagwire pro cables.
@.gaz. can't wait for the maiden ride, and apparently it's not going to rain here tomorrow (always a bonus when your mudguards are out of stock). -
The paint really is rather good, especially like the head lug/tube/badge combo.
Winston stuck one of those struts in with my frame, what a nice chap he is.
I always get out the saddle on climbs, can't do em sat down for some reason, maybe I should go an easier gear and try it, then again maybe not.
Looking forward to a southern ride when Boris lets us all come out to play again.
The raw frame/polished guards does make me a little nervous, gonna have a proper measure up tomorrow, see if I can fit zeps.
