fyi.....you can ship all body panels plus tank to me for about $65, another $65 to get them back. add $500 for a very nice paintjob, and you have $630 invested. that includes all materials. keep this in mind if you can't find a better deal locally. I can supply references to my work.

just use regular automotive grade clearcoat enamal. they are all made to give you a glass like finish, but it is up to the painter to make it happen....either through the application, or by buffing it after.Originally posted by blazerzr2I don't have a short temper.
