Grill and mirrors looks good, don't like the green on the front towing hooks, don't like the wheels style but they look better black, also if you give some of that black paint to the under chassis and wheel well it will look even better.
Did I mention it looks good?

some $8.95 wheel paint. thats just 2 coats tho im going to put one more on then clear coat it.
and the star is getting changed to a green monster M made from 1/4 or 3/8 thick aluminum im custom making it at work to the exact specs from the can just sized to fit just right.
and the hooks are green cause the rearend and the skid plate is too.plus its my favorite color

mopeds got a new piston, rob ported it extensively and he built that pipe and muffler from scratch. pipe is tuned to the port work, its actually pretty extensive, wev got it up to about 40mph but thats a whole nother story lol. got a welder a while back, so theres no limits to how retarded the projects are becoming.
pipe was layed out on autocad
rob read a 200 page book on 2 stroke tuning so hes been dangerous with a dremel and a 2 stroke lately lol
iv been busy with the truck, robs been tinkering with the moped and his new 250r

looks better then it did... but i agree, the star has got to go. i did the same with my truck, but i also tinted the lights and put on some black steprails. totally changes the truck, so much more rugged!
-heres some pics, and did that overspray on the tires come off?, i taped off my tires but it took forever, and i'm getting new tires soon so if i have to repaint them i might be able to save some time... heres a b4 and after pic of mine
-Thanks

my buddy does them... he uses a brand called NITE SHADES, it's a spray can, i think that you can get it from hobby shops or the internet... he does them for $25 but i had him do my front corner lights and turn signals and my 3rd brake light, $45 for everything including the tail lights. it looks factory and is just as strong as any plastic cover, i can scrub it with a rag when i wash the truck and i dont have to worry about them peeling
