under the lid

did you paint everything under the lid? if so did you do it all together or piece by piece8)

 

[horror_freak]

once i got everyhting on the chassis i painted it. the under side of the body was done too. the bumper has no paint on it. its not a true flat black, its a semi flat paint. i have a f650 body too, maybe thinking bout doin it up in a SWAT theme.

what kind of paint did you use im going for the satin black look on the outside.....did you use lexan paint first then apply the flat black?
