Still kicking around the idea of painting the grill and windshield surround in gloss white. In a perfect world, I would chrome them but I don't feel like dropping $1,000.

It's amazing how much different this color looks in different angles of light. Sometimes it looks like burnt copper, other times it almost looks like an orangey gold. I'm diggin it!

Wow, okay I have been reading this the last few days and am inspired.

Tonight I bought a used Iwata paint rig with the regulator for $45.

Did not figure I needed to spend a bunch of money on a brand new gun. I also felt like a used Iwata would be better than a cheap gun in trying to get good results.

Thanks for sharing.
