Default NOS Tank Paint Job COMPLETED!!

Just got my NOS Tank Painted and it's home!

Im 75% show - 25% race the 08 season and wanted opinions on the artwork. One image turned out blurry, but the art is sharp & crisp "live"! Also if anybody has a custom paint NOS tank, throw up a pic so I can compare before I get my smoothie Fuel Rails done.... Thanks!


Ok, I was a bit excited, and drunk when I posted the tank images yesterday. I read the replys and was thinking, wtf do they mean no clear coat...? I had to adjust my camera 10x to get a good shot without the glare I'm thinking! Then I realized I uploaded the "paint job" pics I got while the NOS tank was at the shop, not the photo's of it on my kitchen table

So here are the CORRECT images, of the finished clear coated tank. The NOS tank pic that shows a closeup of the emblem, the specks you see are the pearls in the paint and the white starburst are not from the flash they are airbrushed in. Sorry for the confusion, but it's worth a second look






I will post pics of the install ASAP! I am getting the "Nitrous management unit, window switch, and fuel rail covers painted to match the bottle design, going to look sweet!

I also think you should throw some clear coat on it.

Very nice work!

Here is a couple of pics from what my buddy did on one on my 15lbers. Bearly use it though. I am scared to **** it up. I have 7 other nitrous bottles, so it doesn't really matter.

Awesome job. The only thing that would be better is a pair of dubble-D's on there.

Great job painting!
