An Alloy header tank would look nice though!

^ Stalker lol

Looks great Lou, nice work!

 

[rich19]

just wondering, how dopeople get such a neat line on the writing while spraying, is it just immense patience with some tape?

 

[Russ.]

Spray over it then sand it off later mate, thats what i did anyway. I used one of them electric detailing sanders, only took a few mins

 

[rich19]

nice work Russ i was hoping there was a simpler answer
