I thought I would post some pics of the trailer re-spray I had done, the pictures don't do it justice, it shines and a PERFECT match to the spyder

This is the original thread (http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?39740-Gel-coating-and-trailer-re-spray&p=457343) I had for those that wonder why I did this.

But basically after the trade of my Goldwing I was left with a titanium colored trailer.

Some before shots

I had the trailer and helmet sprayed locally in Rhode Island they did a really fantastic job.

After pictures next post limit 5 images per post

Still waiting on the hitch to arrive at the dealer, they where on back order but now have started to ship so expecting it any day.

Want to take the trailer with me to Americade next weekend.

When you look at the cost of a good quality trailer the BRP one is at a fair price compared with a Bustec and others of the same caliber.

I like the looks of the BRP one, more aerodynamic than this one and the suspension is better.

This one starts off reasonable, base is just $2 shy of $2k.

Then when you add larger chrome wheels, plus spare, plus chrome bumper, led light upgrades, carpeted interior and color match gel coat, etc... its ends up around $3k.

The paint job cost me $450 including the helmet and to be honest its done so well you can not tell the difference between Spyder and trailer.

I will still keep my eyes and hears open towards the end of the year for any left over Lava Bronze BRP trailers, if I can get one at a good price I would sell this one.

But this has serve me very well, it's 22 cubic feet (623 Liters) of extra storage, handy when out with the wife or you want to pick some thing up while touring.

Haven't pulled it with the Spyder yet as I'm still waiting on the hitch, but would forget you had it in tow with the Goldwing, I assume this will be the same.

Overall I'm very pleased with the paint job.

Sweet look.
Makes me thing maybe I should have repainted the Bushtec, instead of buying the BRP.
