I vote for white paint, but it's your model, and it looks good in yellow too.
That's the term I was looking for... its the same procedure as they use for lexan type shells, but the plastic on this is about 2mm thick in places, so very strong. You're quite right, I took my time as I wanted it to fit perfect when finished.. I am also leaning towards white as well it looks nice!
