did you make a write up on how you painted the handles, mirrors, etc?
If so id love to see a link to it. Im looking at painting my lower valence, and am trying to stock up on tips, and methods.
Thanks,
-Patrick



Looks great, are those 20 x 10 rims?


It's funny how that darn bike sneaks into some of your pictures. I would do the same if I was you. I looked at the new ZX10R in green this weekend. Not bad considering I'm 6'3" 240. It just looks fast. And I'm with you, I had a D&D on my 95' F3 (the king of the day, bought it new) and man would she bark. I would also run around a little with an open header on sometimes. Just to wake up the town at 3 A.M.

I had a body shop that does all my painting do them.

1st they sanded them
2nd they shot them with 2 coats of filler primmer
3rd they shot it with the silver
4th they added 3 coats of clear
5th the cut and polished them
6th I picked them up the afternoon after I dropped them off.

the wheels are 18x10...but i want to upgrade to a 20x10

I think it would look a little funny on a 35" tire, they look perfect on your rig as is. I am getting the same setup with 37's on 20" mazzi hulks, wait until you see how those look (should arrive anyday). I am a bit worried there won't be enough rubber (I wheel a LOT) so damaging the rims is going to happen.

I have been looking at the Mazzi's as well (even before I took delivery lol). How is mazzi on chrome quality?

I have a set of 22" Katana Spears from my 2002 that pitted in 3 months during the summer.

Looks great!

I can't wait to see it, im also wanting to do a 3" b/l and 37's but i want to instal gears first. my friend is running a 20x10 kmc rockstar with a 35" nitto mud grappler on his Titan, and it doesn't look half bad, but he hasn't taken offroad so im not sure how that is.

Looks great. How much did they charge you to paint everything? Keep the running boards they look good.

Hulks are identical to the Eagle's.

Ok I see now. Just google'd them. They are an exact copy, but they do not come in 20 x 10, only 20 x 8.5. The 18's came in 18 x 10.

Still nice wheels! These are the set I keep coming back to, just like the wheels I put on the 02 (took me 2 years to break down and order them).

All the paint work was $700. I already removed the running boards a few months ago. Im just wanting to get a Edge chip, and could use the money more than the boards
