so after looking through storage im pretty sure my dd10 lost. so rather than trying to buy another dd10 i herd it was possible to turn a dd5 into ti. anyone know how or link me to a tutorial.

yeah, just strip the black off and paint it silver/grey

anything is possible, other then finding another one for cheap. I painted mine t match my octale LE and painted a carbon fiber paintjob on it.

I had my brother make up some decals for it, they are similar but not exactly the same. I can now copy those on my viny cutter if you want decals made for it.

strip the black off, sand/brush it with 400G sand paper all same direction for that consistent brushed metal look, then powder coat clear over it- that's Ti finish for you

and then wait for the rust to begin!

THAT is Ti! As much as I love it I hate it......

Spiritofnorway has a brandnew TIDD10 that is too big for his install! He´s looking to trade it for a DD5 plus some cash
