nice paint job. rattle can? it looks a ton better

 

yea i degreased the crap out of the motor, then went at it with a tooth brush, then went at it with some water and soap, then dried it off

and after a recommendation from fathead on customfighers, he said to use dupi color engine enamel, its lasted two years on his ride

so i gave it a go, it seems like itll hold really well im pretty excited

 

ahh, ya i was wondering on how you get paint to stick to the engine because its aluminum, the temperatures, yada yada. i knew you can do it, but it'd chip off pretty quick. is that what he did to his f3... ? damn, i need to not be a panzy and just intro myself on there, no good pics of my bike right now though, its in pieces, the SSSA is going on!

 

lol jerk i want ur old one haha....

and yea thats what he sprayed his f3 with, Ive been talking and getting ideas with a few of the better builders on there lol

 

outside shot.... its coming along AWESOME

 

hahaha hey man, i just dont wanna swap. ya it is coming along nicely - told you fightereing is an addiction. have you taken it for a spin yet since you've gone naked?

 

lol yea i took her out for a little spin around the block, but with no signals or mirrors quite yet, ide get pulled over in a heart beat if i tried actually taking her out....

but they should be here come monday

but anyway today im stripping my rearsets down to metal, and giving them to my buddy tomorrow to have him pc them black for me

and im painting all the rearset, and engine bolts gold

 

so a few hours of stripper, dremel, and elbow grease, and these are almost ready for some black powder coat from a buddy

 

wow, what kind of stripper do you use? thats good stuff.

 

lol i used the good stuff, gotta be careful with aluminum though and make sure to wash it off good, if it sits to long itll pit aluminum

you can get it at pretty much any automotive store... i always get the gel kind

its messy dangerous stuff, so always use it outside, most people wear gloves, i just make sure and wash my hands good while i use it, if you get it on ur skin ull feel it burning
