Yup it's yours do as you please, there I said it, now color is a easy fix if you or someone else wants to make it orig. and your talking about the trim color that would be easy to change, you wouldn't even have to tear the tractor apart, and I think your wrong on not many RJs out there I bet we have many many of them on here some members have more than one, I had 4 at one time, but they are not my cup O tea, so I sold them, just don't cut up a good tractor.
I did this last summer for my daughter, and never had one person say anything bad about it.
These pics catch the color the best.
And I didn't care what others thought, it was to please my Daughter and myself.
