Yoshi Posted September 1, 2008 Author Share Posted September 1, 2008 (edited) Got the rail back from the powdercoater Thursday, so this is the last 3 days progress... I'm picking up the wing and gas tanks from the powdercoater tomorrow, and i'll grab the vinyl in the morning to cover all the interior panels....

dunefreak Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 That looks badass! I can't tell from the pics because of the flash, but is that like a satin/matte black or gloss? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EY3BA11 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 from what i have read the frame is gloss the panels are satin/flat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted September 2, 2008 Author Share Posted September 2, 2008 (edited) frame, rims, and suspension are gloss, panels are satin black but they have some reflection to them, completly flat black has a gray tint to it and I wanted black.

Yoshi Posted September 6, 2008 Author Share Posted September 6, 2008 Made some more progress, and I fired it up a few hours ago. If the axles were hooked up and the brake lines were bled, I could drive it outta the shop. It's hard to tell by the pics, but I wrapped the interior side panels with vinyl.....

dunefreak Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 You've got lots of time on your hands, Yoshi. Those look sweet. You're quite the guru at PS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EY3BA11 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Still diggin the black frame orange panels and black wheels combo.. that just looks bad a$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) You've got lots of time on your hands, Yoshi. Those look sweet. You're quite the guru at PS. Thank ya much. I spent a few hours breaking the rail up into 3 layers, chassis/suspension, panels and rims, after that, I can create pretty much do any color combo I want in about 3 or 4 min., so it's actually pretty quick after the initial setup is done....
