I think it looks good, I would get some gas tank decals (500 ho) for it if it were me, but otherwise good job!!!

 

Very nice job.

 

Looks great to me wish you could do mine.

 

Good job.It looks good.

 

Did you leave yours set outside? Mine stays inside or covered when not being ridden,still looks good, hope it stays that way.Mine is still pretty new, I was really just wondering what conditions and how long before yours turned purple.

Oh yeah...good job on the re-paint!

 

Looks real good..if you get bored you could do the wheels in matte black and that would look nice.

 

I'm really believing the sun has something to do with it.....My 05 stays in the garage when I don't use it and still looks as good as it did when it was new.Just my 2 cents....

What kind of paint did you use and how did you set it to bind on the plastic? Like to know for
future ref in case I need to touch up or re-do my plastics color. Also, is there a clear coat you
can put over that to protect it?

LOOKS GOOD By the Way!
