White Virgin Cabinets?
Anybody know why virgin has started repainting its street cabinets white. Just noticed the other day when walking home they had repainted a cab near my house white which I know was green this morning. They haven’t been replaced as the doors are still dented slightly. Then today as I was driving some wear I noticed lots of them have been painted white with a big black cab number on them. We've never had any white cabs in my area before, they were all green.

Re: White Virgin Cabinets?
I posted this days ago but no one knew the answer , my parents had a letter saying VM were upgrading the area , they were working on the green cab which after they finished became a grey colour.

Re: White Virgin Cabinets?
so the white is an under layer, protector or something of the sort?
I remember reading Masques post on here stating VM were upgrading all cabinets. Is this going to be done in order of some sort?

It will be a heat reflective paint. The cab upgrades are the equipment though, not the actual cab itself.

Re: White Virgin Cabinets?
When they are painted white does that mean the peeps are able to go out and do their own designs on the boxes?
