Have you though of trying plastic dip?I have heard of people using it just havnt seen the quality in person

I have not looked into that? I want gloss black, the new plastics are shiny gloss black. Unfortunately the brand new gas tank is not a shiny as the plastics. May have to see if Kevin can work his magic and polish the new tank?

Forks installed. new front rim and tire. Back rim is on backorder. Have new frame rails but still working on dialing in actual ride height before I set the motor.

Got impatient seeing all the new shiny parts sitting on the shelf, so I put a few on for a quick visual. Frame and swing arm will be black as well as the pipe. Next up waiting on the rear shock to finish dialing in the final ride height then finish the frame and motor mounts.

Just my .02, but I think the gold swingarm looks sweet.

It’s coming together really nice.there was a guy on 3wheelerworld.com in the marketplace/store that was making carbon fiber models of the plastics they looked really nice.some carbon shrouds would look solid..

If the forks and swingarm were closer in color I would consider keeping the swingarm gold.

I talked to Cadet, the guy that took over making the missile kits, he is going to be selling black rear fenders. I will vinyl wrap mine for now until he has the black fenders available.

No new progress yet, still waiting for my rear shock. Schmitdy says they will get on it right after the holidays. Cleaning and painting parts for now.

Some new progress, unfortunately no rear shock yet. But I did get my black rear rim. It has been on back order since October. Finally canceled the order when I found a pair of them on Ebay from Rocky Mountain ATV that are used for $100.00. Also received my electric start kit from Panthera.
