    Hi all,

    If you have went past the anodised seat collar and went for a paint job, I hope your happy with it… Let me see if so people, I’m about to get my Trek fuel done in lime/Kawasaki green, and white.

    Thanks in advance to everyone!

    The opposite effect. Gloss black flames over matt black base.

    Kawasaki green is always good

    Wow Nick – that’s excellent work! I only ever saw NS bikes do matt and gloss together but it was in no way as good as flames – just a fade. could you show me a close up of a tube?

    You can just make some flames out from this angle. Needs to be seen in the flesh for full, subtle, effect.

    RAL 6018

    Now finished with black carbon bars and a couple of green ano bits. I know black bits would be more tasteful but couldn’t help myself!

    Custom paint jobs you need to look on the Waterford bikes web page from the states mate! The pin striping alone is awesome all done by hand too!

    Some great paint on the above and I really like the job on that race bike – the purple one… that blue matches perfecto on those forks too!

    I like the idea of outlining the flames on the second bike, gives me an idea, ta!

    Anyone else got stuff to show off… Keep them coming!

    Cheers! 😉

    Did the paint job myself useing cans from a car shop.
    Not sure of the cost as i changed colours have way through
    mybe £120. including sandblasting which i don’t recomend
    as the frame is so thin.

    My rendition of the Van Deyk Nightstream paint job on my DMR Switchback.

    From this –

    Cheaper than replacing the frame every season! The red job was airbrushed by a friend who used to paint helmets and the green was done by the folks at Orange 😀

    The Remedy: That’s almost exactly what I have in my head! Just swap the matt black for gloss white and bingo… I already have all the red anodized bits on the frame including everything by Hope – limited red M4’s from Moonglu. That’s a beautiful bike mate…

    Thanks for sharing! 😉

    I also love the sparkly off white, lovely!

    My Mather needs a respray, considering going for Gulf colours but in flame – light blue with orange flames…. Who did the flame spray jobs up there?

    The blue on blue IF looks awesome. love that.
