Does Will still need the factory seat frame brackets? I'll be in your neighborhood next week and can drop them off so you can paint them.

Yes SnT will be the big trip but i am thinking when i get the top on i just might have to drive it to work one day just to make sure everything is working ok.

How did that paint gun work for you? Does it run on a 'normal' air compressor? How even was the coat?

I ran about 40 psi thru the gun using my sears 90 compressor and yes a very even coat. i am very happt with the gun

 

[40Flipper]

does the red show blemishes or does the tone hide some imperfections?

thought about painting mine red but thought it would be too glaring for some minor bumps and dings on the metal.

 

[landcrusher909]

Done

You might want to put a windshield in that before he takes it to SnT.

Mrs Landcrusher909 amy appreciate it.
