Re: Fresh out of the paint shop.....i finally did it!!!!!!!

I like it, it will look killer with the striping done. Are you gonna just stripe it to break the paint line or something more elaborate?

Re: Fresh out of the paint shop.....i finally did it!!!!!!!

The last of my pics for now....

the last pic is of the rendering.... I couldn't see my burb with the tribal gray stripe so I went simple. I think the tribal stuff is a lil dated, but that is just my opinion.
