Raven Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 That I'm not sure of. Any paint experts want to answer that one? Quote
KE30_KE35_KE55 Posted January 7, 2009 Author Report Posted January 7, 2009 I put a few hours in after work finished off the back tailgate, fabricated a hinged number plate holder Quote

KE30_KE35_KE55 Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Posted January 8, 2009 Tonight I got another coat on the walls floor and painted the tailgate. Quote
Tume Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 In the photos the paint looks really good! Be interesting what it would look like in real life though if your not happy with the paint. Lookin Good! Quote
Redwarf Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 Noice. I heartily endorse this service or product. I'm reco'ing mine ATM, and I'm pretty sure it won't turn out that good. Are you going to apply to get it it's own postcode? It's big enough.... :P Quote
seabiscuit Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 gaurds look good, welds look good, even from a distance, glad to see it wasnt fully welded, was done right :P Why is it that you shouldn't weld it fully? It looks "holy" with all of them uneven gaps! Love the colour by the way! Looks hot. But it definitely needs some hot-pink flames. :P .... and a RollaClub sticker. :wink: Quote
Redwarf Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 Well, the theory I use is that if a weld starts to crack, it wil crack the length of one weld, ie a couple of inches, as opposed to along the whole length as would be the case if the weld ran full length. You do the same with a car. Quote
KE30_KE35_KE55 Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Posted January 8, 2009 thanks for the comments everyone. i am running into overtime but hope to have this project completed this weekend. Quote
