Here's a couple of pics of the new paint job. Took the opportunity to fix a couple of bad places too.

Masking off for the flames was the most time consuming. But she's happy with it. We had to take it out for a ride today too.

Thanks for all the compliments. Here's my son's I done back in the spring, she liked the way it turned out so she wanted hers flamed too. It was easy cause it's so little, and didn't take as long.

Believe it not that little thing will fly on top end with ME on it! I was teaching him how to do burnouts in the yard one day and he caught on quick.LOL
I'll have to get some of them actually side by side.

Took a piece of aluminum and cut out a cover for the gauges so it would fill in all the space. Wet sanded the aluminum with 2000 grit then buffed and polished with some Mother's so it would shine like chrome. Had to make a cardboard template first to get it right.
