painting my front bar

Post by nvr2low »

hey guys thought i would show what i am doing in my spare time. I have decided to try and respray my front bar and side skirts.

I have sanded the front bar back and got its first coat of spray putty/primer on to get rid of all the little cracks and pin holes.

Looks sweet.

But can you imagine pulling up to Liverpool Krispy Kreme in this on a Saturday night thou? You'd spend the rest of the night talking your way out of defects then watching it get towed down to the impound lot :lol: The number plate tells me so :lol:
