Rustoleum again.. FTW

Well Halverso and I seem to be having some sort of competition going on. So I spent a LOT of time today with my wire brush, and I would have to say that we are very close at the moment . I am hoping to paint just about everything like this, but I am considering throwing another color in there somewhere just to throw things off a bit. Enough talk.. more pics.

Yeah... I plan on adding some of my body color to mine somewhere. I currently have mine painted in flat black engine paint for durability with silver accents. I want to get it perfected in the spring.

Well as much as the competition goes... I gotta say that yours looks better than mine, SO FAR. Only because you used actual paint and it looks really clean. Mine, I used that rubbery tar undercoating and it was really sloppy to work with and it ended up getting on a lot of stuff that it shouldn't have (that I didn't want it to). So hopefully when I finish mine up I can clean it up a bit so it doesn't look like I just dumped the stuff on everything even though I spent ALL day working on it yesterday.

But at least I don't feel like a complete idiot. I see you got some on your spare tire too.

Thanks guys.

I knew that I had missed those . Right after I saw those pictures I went out there with a flashlight and went over them. It got dark on me so thats why I was getting on my spare and what not. The flash shows EVERYTHING.
