thats nice......any body else have anything like some springs..................or just anything

Posted by: Pappy

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

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

yellow and black didnt do very well...the black and red seems to be ok. ill just keep playing around with it

Posted by: Pappy

hahah...thx but no thx. ill test on a part i can toss in the garbage if it dont come out right

springs are a pain to strip

and id hate to have to strip them over and over

Posted by: rap169

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

Posted by: lil400exman

it would be mezmorizing

Posted by: Pappy

well if i can locate an old spring ill give it a go

im sure there are some at burgards he will let me have .

Just did some nw stuff today, figured why not go for it.

A 250x spring. I did all three the same way, but here is a pic of one of the fronts.

Posted by: danney f

man those are some big pics, didn't know they were going to be that big.

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

Posted by: Pvt. Maggot

can you give me some prices? thanks alot.

Posted by: Pappy

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

this one will be trans blue into chrome. ill post pics when i get it done

keep up the good work

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.
