You do really good work! I love how you have the same paint style on everything you have.


I read your entire build thread. Its amazing. I wish i could just see some of this stuff. The whole time though i have been wondering. Why copper? it seems like its kind of an odd color?

Why Copper? B/c my name is not Red&Black. haha J/K
The same reason anyone chooses a color, they like it. In person it works well, trust me.


Couple pictures of the rear section fit...

That is by far my favorite custom console I've ever seen built! So clean and nicely laid out :waytogo:

Thanks 07

The black was shot today along with the clear. Everything will cure over the weekend and I'll have a pro polisher come in and do the trailer & the truck for a little photo shoot along with the bike to hopefully get some more sponsors on board.

Black!

The guy that shot the paint is one of our machine shop employees. The machine shop side is a little slow so if our guys need cash we like to find jobs for them to do to make sure they can support their families.

I could polish it myself I have the equipment & compounds but have no desire to spend a day polishing and waxing a truck and a trailer. Especially since I have a thousand other things I need to do. And I don't care how good you are with the clear gun, you will never get it to lay flawlessly smooth. :)
