thanks Beasst8! i think we're repainting it in the spring though... going with blue again or the antifreeze green color

Nice paint Pheonix! the only thing i would do diff. with the wheels is leave a machined lip around the black. i think it would add the right accent to it. just my opinion though. car looks great man!

Thanks man your car looks sick as well. I think you should stick with the blue i have painted a couple of bikes with the antifreeze green and imo the blue looks better. The rims are an on going debate still, i am not sure if i should go all black or the polished lip.

yeah the blue does look better i think, ive also been thinking about just a deep red flame kinda like that Hellfire kandy color ^^^ i think itd look sick. ill have to experiment i guess lol.

the machined lip would, i think, look a little better. the all black reminds me of spare tires but either way itll look awesome with those flames.

The engine covers and air intake look great. Great under hood detail.
