Tonights accomplishments

And I know what I'm doing this weekend! A solid day of powder coating!

Looks like you know what your doing, very nice! Great fab and PC skills. The gold inlays on the ignition and clutch cover are pretty sweet.

Thanks! I really wish you guys could see the powder for what it really looks like. Damn floresent light sucks! The side covers took me most of the day to do. The inlays were a pain in the rest end! But, out of the struggle came a new process that is super quick to do and the results are about as good as can be! So of course now that I can do the inlays I want to do more and none of my buddies have any projects going on lol. Heck if anybody has any broken covers off any engine just so I can play with let me know. I'll pay for shipping. I'd like to have more stuff to hang on my garage wall.
The Nerf bars were a lot more work that I had anticipated. Oh well, live and learn although I am pretty damn happy with the finished product!

Oh! And I'm glad you think I know what I'm doing! I'm getting pretty good at APLEARING that way!! Haha bit really though, thanks for the compliments!

Everything looks so good, that Gold frame speaks to me!!!! And yes, you look like you know what your doing!

I do have an issue though, it's those plastics.. Can you powder coat them white?

If not, and you plan to keep, I've had success with wet sanding and using one of those headlight lens cleaner kits with the sponge drill bit thing..

Yea the plastics are kinda ugly. I want some fill fender fronts so I may end up buying some. I'm not too sure. They get scratched up om the side from my boots so that would be an waste of time to try to fix. The other areas I will try to fix with some went sanding and polish. I have some novus so I'll give that a try first.
