At least you decided to pick something easy to learn to paint on mate. Looks the goods.

[BigMuz]

Looks good- what paint did you use?

Did the kbs go bad?

[Dave]

KBS went yellow, I knew it wasn't UV stable, but I didn't expect it to be as bad as it was. It was also pretty crap as it was brushed on and the crappy KBS brushes lost heaps of bristles. All of the engine bay stuff that has been painted with the silver KBS will need to be repainted at some point too.

I used the left over Valspar you sent from the body, do rate.

nice one!!

[Dogsballs]

i thought about white for mine originally, but said fuck it and went black.

[Dave]

can safely say that it will never wear rego plates again, cage is now very obvious

[BigMuz]

Yeah right. The yellowing is one of those things with fancy enamels.

[Dave]

I believe their diamond top coat stops it

[Greg Rust]

My cage is painted white and I'm still on normal rego. Just drive it till there's an issue, then sort that issue, don't get hung up on the small details, they can be fixed once its driving.

[Dave]

I am off to jail for 100 years if I was to get caught driving this in qld, deregistered it 18 months ago.

[Greg Rust]

Ah bummer, I paid rego for 4 years whilst rebuilding my pos.

At least Shannon's gave me laid up cover insurance discount during this time.

[Dave]

Haven't put pics up in a while, wife made roof lining, have spent far to much time boarding up the rear seat. Not sure if to sew in a pattern into the firewall cover or not.

[132oft]

There should always be a pattern/logo in the rear firewall cover, they're too large to leave plain.

[Motherfucker Jones]

Mural of hamster guy would fill that area nicely

[BigMuz]

Do a huge cock and balls there.
