Guest human4m Posted April 18, 2010 #1 Posted April 18, 2010 There wasn't much going on this weekend, so I decided to black out the cylinder covers on my scoot... I plan on scuffing/buffing the edges of the fins, but I'm waiting for the paint to cure first... Of course I had to attach before and after photos.... http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy164/human4m/0417001356.jpg http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy164/human4m/0417001355.jpg http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy164/human4m/0418001626.jpg http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy164/human4m/0418001626a.jpg
slick97spirit Posted April 18, 2010 #2 Posted April 18, 2010 can't wait to see the finished product. what kind of paint did you use?
Guest human4m Posted April 18, 2010 #3 Posted April 18, 2010 can't wait to see the finished product. what kind of paint did you use? It was the High-Temp, any-angle spray from AutoZone. I used the Semi-Gloss. Didn't want flat, and didn't want gloss... Went right in the middle. The wife likes it how it is, but I think she'll like it even more when it's finished!
Sylvester Posted April 18, 2010 #4 Posted April 18, 2010 Now you need to diamond cut the fins. Looks great. I missed a deal on an 99 RSTC last month.

Sylvester Posted April 19, 2010 #6 Posted April 19, 2010 Let me know about it. A friend is looking for one.
Freebird Posted April 19, 2010 #7 Posted April 19, 2010 I bought a spare set of the fins off Ebay a while back. Am planning to try my hand at diamond cutting them but haven't found the time or energy yet. Maybe one of these days.

I'll probably just end up taking a dremel to the edge, and doing it the po' boy way. Afterall, I'm not too fond of puttin gmore money into it that I can't recoop whenever I finally get someone to make an offer!
