Talking New paint

Not sure if this is the right section. Anyway.
So I finished re-painting my atv, so now it looks as good as it runs.

BEFORE:


AFTER:



So, the seat is still gray...... from duct tape......
I'll be looking for some red vinyl soon to finish it off.
Now I just have to wait for it to dry....

It looks good. Let us know how the paint holds up on the trails.

What kind of paint did you use? It looks pretty sharp.

Did you use Fusion or some other plastic-use paint? standard spray paint will look great at first, but the vibration and flexing of the fenders will cause cracking and flaking over time if the paint is not made for a softer surface like body panels and fenders. It does look nice the way it sits, though. Let us know how it holds up.

and....did you mount the headlights to the front bumper, or are they just not reattached to the fenders yet???
