The camera didn't really capture what I did very well, I will probably have to make a video tomorrow.

That is beautiful. Doesn't exactly look like the Ti finish with the ?pearl? in it, but I love it. Can you give us any hints as to what the paint was?

I bet if you were to drag a brush of some type through that paint while it was wet it would come pretty close.

Looking great! I am so mad. While trying to sand the bottom plate of my 450, I ran out of sanding discs for my snapon dremel. Oh well, another trip to Sears never makes me unhappy. I should have my primed and on here this weekend. Inbetween digging the pool in... :x :x :x

Would you believe me if I told you that case is still black :lol:

I never painted it a different color after black :idea:

and in the process I may have discovered how to do a Frank'd finish....I have to test it now :shock:

But I need something to shoot it at.....like a ZX500 :roll:

Nope, I have not ordered my parts as of yet.....I was thinking of shooting the case a different color one last time :roll:

Last time though.....I have to get it done :lol:

You need to grind off those little nubs where the fan shield was at.

Give it a wet sand first... or are you changing the look altogether?
