Thanks Fischflo :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:, The thread was a great way to keep me on the ball - I'd recommend it to anyone that has a special build they want to document, glad you enjoyed it.
Sorry about the grips though!

Mike like i said in our pms well done and your face says it all, there was a lot of back and
forth pms on colours and how the paint job should look, well after us both aggreeing on the right colours matched from the decals Mike sent, i painted the whole frame in three differant
colours, sent Mike a couple of pics and he had a nervous pm to me saying the grey didnt look right ??? i reassured him it was spot on to the decal, took some more pics in a differant
part of my work unit that had more light and finally Mike was happy :daumenhoch: so this is
what we go through to get what the customer wants and the look he wanted paid off and won 1st place :4_17_5:,   just a normal day at the office :LolLolLolLol:
For powder coating drop me a pm
