Default Some mods to my new ride (pics inside)

Hey guys. Ive started my mods...i have no money right now cause im paying for this f4i, but ive done a few cheap mods, excluding the sliders.
I painted my windscreen, shaved that "landing gear" off the back, and did a custom pinstriping job around the wings...tell me what you think

The pin stripe around the wings looks good. Nice job.

Nice job with pinstriping looks very professional. You said you also painted your windscreen, what did you use to paint it, if you dont mind me asking? Looks almost see through from the pictures you took. thanks

i first used lexan paint from a hobby store, and then sprayed a layer of clearcoat over the top, but the clearcoat must have been sitting around our house for a while, and it was chunky, so i sanded that off and sprayed rustoleum paint for plastic, and that works better than the lexan paint cause the lexan scratches off easy. and sorry, but cant see through at all. im happy with the turn out though....cheap mod

Looking good man!! If you dont mind me asking.... What sliders are those and were they hard to install? How did you shave the landing gear? And is that the stainless or Titanium yosh pipe? keep up the good work! I feel ya about on the no $ subject I'm paying for mine too. I had to finance mine thru a stealership and get it brand new b/c I couldnt get a loan from a bank to buy a used one. My identity was stolen about a yr ago and still isnt back to normal yet!! protect your self anyway u can!! It sucks trust me !!

i have vortex frame sliders installed. I followed a step by step procedure that someone on the forum posted, but cant find it right now. about the tail, i used a dremel tool and cut off the big part and re-mounted the license plate with 2 drill holes. i cleaned up the cut with sandpaper. and about the pipe...i am not sure, but i think it is stainless. i bought it with the pipe already installed.
