Wow thats pretty crazy

Im guessing this is going to cost you a pretty penny to get a painter to do that.

Sounds good. Can't wait to see the finished product. Are you going to put SuperRoo stickers on it?

Shouldn't cost bugger all if your doing the prep and buying all the products...Im off to sleep other wise I would of writing you a list of what to get (maybe in the morning), spraying pearls isn't really any harder than spraying a flat coat, just a matter of layering them right.

hey thanks for ur feedback. here is a pic of the color. hmm, if preparation is the most important part ill consider getting someeone to do that too. all i know is that itll look MAAAAD as with a silver/grey or gold undercoat.
its a bugger i have to wait a few weeks for the paint to arrive.

cheers

and yes dezza, the super roo stickers will definently be going back on. and i might also put some tickford badges under the superroo stickers. but at $28 per tickford badge ill have to think about that 1.

ditch the superoo stickers and don't put tickford badges on it. and lower it first and get some decent wheels, albeit EF stockies shined up.
