HI,
I do agree.
I have to admit that I don't like the green panels either so that's the
reason why I didn't use them in my MOC out of the 8458 and 8466. For me the
most important parts of the Offroader where the construction beams and the
gearbox for the MOC. My GTcar uses only the silver parts and I hope you do
like the bodystyling more than the the 8466 ;)
