Re:Aussie 2006 Jimny - 4" lift, 30" BFGs, cool wheels

Haha cheers, you'll need to get your welder out if you want one

I had a Vespa until 14:25 hours on 16th August 2010 when a nice lady with a new born baby in a mk4 Vw Golf drove into the back of me as she accelerated onto a roundabout not seeing me waiting to pull out into the gap she went for, pushing me onto the roundabout, folding my bike's body up. I couldn't keep it upright so gently laid it down, not realising it was a write off yet. Then I heard screeching tyres to turn around and see a 40T truck skidding to a stop to not hit me and came face to face with it's grill!

Not that I remember it clearly!

I look forward to seeing yours finished. Will you be doing some air brushing on it?

I look forward to it being finished too. If I do any airbrushing it will be subtle.

Yeah I had some scary moments on my first Vespa (PX125E 1985). Motorbikes are so much safer but not as cool ;P

I'm working on a Suzuki SJ bonnet at the moment, I won't put any pics up yet as it's a secret and I know some of the other Aussie guys come on here. Laid down the base colour today, first time I've used a gun, came out quite reasonable and my flaws will be hidden with a bit of sanding and when the clear coat goes on.
I'll share it once it's finished but suffice to say it'll be the most detailed airbrushing I've done so far. I can't wait to get it done to see the finished product.

Fitted my new LED light bar today, the small LEDs will migrate to the rear for reversing.

here's that bonnet I mentioned I was spraying

nice airbrushing
