First we knew we needed a custom paint: We decided to use a fairly new technology called Hydrographics or Hydro Imaging, this process consists of transferring a pattern to an object using water displacement. This allows for a custom look at a fraction of the cost of hand painting or airbrushing.

Finch Services used Hydrographics to paint the hood with a Carbon Fiber look
Green flames were also added to the fenders & side panels to further accent the Gator

The graphic we choose was “Carbon Fiber” look and the paint was a House of Colors lime green. The hood and bed panel inserts were painted and dipped with the carbon fiber print, while the fenders and flames on the side panels of the bed were painted with a House of Color lime green paint and the flames on the bed were finished with hand painted pin stripping.
