ripped_fear Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I tried to tell colin i wanted to go diablo red. (pug) But was over ruled. In a bold move i have told colin to find the paint! :O brave man giving someone else the permission lol. A red such as this- would look stunning imo.

The Raven Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 Hmm. I will think about it I like the dark red maybe that but not candy. Hence i suppose the diablo red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 You might still find the diablo red will need to go onto a special base coat... my orange has to go onto a super white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themodifiedkid Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Last few I promise!!! have got loads more but dont want to bore you, and you get the general idea. Just need to nib a couple of areas where trash has stuck to the paint work but nothing major. Then the mesh on the vents need to go black, under seal the body, then the mammoth task of bolting every thing back up again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 You rock man! I will do you a poster of all the pics when its all done and frame it for you. Lets be fair this project has been a "task" from the day the stickers came off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
