A little detail

[DirtMonkey]

While i m waiting on my axle I figured I would throw some paint on the hubs. It looks a lot better than red IMO

looks good dude

[rob_990]

nice
what kind of paint did you use?

[BlasterEaten250]

That looks really good

[DirtMonkey]

Thanks, I used some Valspar gloss spray paint from Lowe's

[NacsMXer]

Looks good :cool:

What kind of prep did you do to them before you painted them?

[DirtMonkey]

I wiped everything down with mineral spirits to get the grease and dirt off, then with some 220 grit and about 3 hours sanded every nook and cranny down to give the paint something to grab on to. Finally wiped it down with denatured alcohol just before spraying it.

wow that looks great i gotta say the first time i saw the graphics kit before it was on the quad i wasn't a big fan but after u cut the money away from the dice it looks really good and the painted spindles sets it off nicely.

They came out nice, thanks for the tips on the prep. Might want to paint my front hubs.

Also get the 1/2 inch green painters tape, it works good for the small stuff

Looks good. Did you do the rears also? Really helps set off the green in the graphics.

[DirtMonkey]

Yeah I did the rears and probably going to throw them on the stock axle just so I can ride on saturday

Looks good, i'd do the motor mounts also.

can those c-series wheels hold up to any abuse? looks good though

[ngates788]

those green hubs look sick man

[DirtMonkey]

Thanks for the comments, I am waiting until next year to tear it all apart and thats when ill do the motor mounts, and as for the wheels I just ordered some ITP Baha's for the back, and the fronts have been good so far.

[DirtMonkey]

Didnt get my axle back yet but couldnt wait so I threw on the stocker so I could ride.

I painted the scoops black and when I get done riding tomorrow I am going to tape them off and paint the inside of the scoops the same color as my hubs.

looks alot better with black scoops.
