springs would look awesome with a fade....but i dont know how it would be done. im sure someone can do it....but i dont know how:confused: to get good coverage the cross powder would terrible and very hard to control. ill see if i can find an old spring and try it

well what i have learned is that some colors DO NOT fade together very well. im sure there is a technical reason for this but i dont know what that is:p yellow and black didnt do very well...the black and red seems to be ok. ill just keep playing around with it:D

ya i didnt think about the difficulty of it because of the inside of the spring needs to be done. I think it would be amazing

those springs are BADASS how much would you want to do some stuff. i think i'm gonna get my stock head pipe coated you think you could cut my mounts off and make them so i can put a 400 heat shield on it? and then coat it? also is that black into chrome. thats what i wanted to ask pappy if he could do a 400 heat shield just like that. :devil

"thats what i wanted to ask pappy if he could do a 400 heat shield just like that. :devil "

Well if I can do, it than Pappy has been doing it with is eyes closed and one hand tied behind his back for weeks now.

"you think you could cut my mounts off and make them so i can put a 400 heat shield on it? and then coat it?"

I think I could handle that, did that to a 350x head pipe about a month ago. Just not sure how a 400ex sheild will line up on a 300ex pipe.

"is that black into chrome."

Yep! sure is

looks good!!!!

the spring or any round tubing is easier and will come out better then a flat surface like a shield....they still look ok...just arent as clean as a round part.

nope danny i havent even attempted a spring.....but i am doing a $900 mountain bike frame fade:eek2: this one will be trans blue into chrome. ill post pics when i get it done:p

keep up the good work:D

yours? or customers?
I originally wanted to do my springs white, but now i dunno, i like the two colors blended together. I just dont know which colors would be nice together on my quad.
