i think you should put some more stickers on it......

I would but theres no more room, the threads not about how many stickers are on it, make one to complain about it if you want

 

[Whitty21]

and i am taking the big fox ones off cause they are too much and wrinkling a bit, to each his own though, sorry i bitched out, just wanna get that running again

Looks good. I wasn't sure about gold before I saw it on.

 

[Blasterb0y794]

Thats a no go for me...
Should have prepped it more or got it sand blasted...
You can see all the old paint underneath.

its alright i think you need some more gold in there and it would look alot better it just looks a little outa place you know what paint your air scoops goold then it would look pretty bad ass

I like it stands out! It'll be mud color soon enough!!

A lot of worse places you don't even see when it is on the bike, i made sure i prepped the most visible parts good enough.

I plan on adding some accents though, we will see what happens

why is it on the cooker? heat?

 

[Whitty21]

I had it in the oven to bake it for 1 hour at 200 F, it was still hot when I took the pic, it helps set the paint

 

[Kieran]

i take it it was that heat resistant paint then

 

[Blasterdude27]

Looks good dude!

 

[Whitty21]

Yes, normal paint wouldn't hold up to engine heat

 

[Whitty21]

Looks good dude!

Thanks dude..........

 

[blasterfreek30]

not bad dude, its a first ive seen......get off topic for abit, isnt it bad to cook that stuff in ur home oven, not sure just curious

 

[Whitty21]

haha its probably not the greatest, but i aired it our afterward and put some baking soda in to absorb all of the fumes remaining and cleaned it with oven cleaner

 

[Whitty21]

I think i am going to do the kick starter and center of the stator the same colour, and am considering doing the outside of the scoops, opinions?

 

[DirtDiggler]

Do the whole cylinder!!!!! I think it looks the sh*t!!!!! And keep the stickers my bike is stickered like a mofo fast as f*ck and I could care less if anyone hates my fmf pipe or my rattlecan frame cause it's usually because they are trying to catch up !!!!!
