    Default Well done....

    Looks great and the nice thing is that you can always change to another color. Have done it a few times....

    What specifically was painted? The panels you could have gotten in black in the 1st place?

    So you plasti-dipped the whole left and right side air intake covers? Is that what I'm seeing? I was thinking of doing my passenger pegs in Can Am Red but was thinking of doing just paint instead of plasti-dip.

    Is this the same Plasti Dip that has been used on tools for years and years?

    Also, how did you do it? Looks nice!

    Each coat. Used tooth pic to remove plasti in small areas.

    The can-am letters on the side panel have been blacked out with gloss black plastic dip

    Wow, What a short conversation this would have been with a before and after shot...
    Before it might have looked like black Ryker.jpg See the bright silver CAN AM on the side?

    But black on charcoal is less visible. I guess like they say "to each his own". Should have painted letters charcoal too, for FULL invisibility.

    I think it looks good but it took me awhile to figure out what had been done.
