So scratch off the "R", change it to a "6"...and an extra line, shake it all around... That's what it's all about!

That red sure is nice... So which is the faster red one now?
-
It's nice... But seems like someone in the safety business would wear... Or like I'd need a hard hat or something...?
-
I like the idea of Slingshot inspired color combos...
Blue with white ink
Black with red ink
Silver with black ink
Red with black ink
And the one that should have been made... Lime green with black ink -
Okay... Last post on this. Promise!
Here are the pictures of the pinstriping and smudges. @Painter... How can I get them off? Just spray oven cleaner and scrub like heck? Using microfiber?
-
Very true all! Sorry to @Dave@DDMWorks for the derailment... Lol...
Last thing though... She (wife) has stated before that with every child the potential percentage keeps rising and rising... It's cheaper to keep her!
-
Man... Patience... Patience... Everybody says patience...
-
Thanks @Dave@DDMWorks... And thanks @Ross...
I'm thinking now I've got to double that number... $17k for the Sling. $17k for the pending divorce...
-
So.... Out the door price?
I know I basically need about another $17k to have my wish list... Paint, speed, and wheels/tires... That's it!
-
@rabtech needs to put his here... That one was good!
-
Thanks @devonpam! That's exactly why I want to do it... To make it my own.
I'm going to try the local school thing many suggested... But eventually, the goal is to have painter do it!

2. Do not use enamel reducer on your paint!!!!! For pinstripe removal ( which is usually One Shot enamel) try Easy Off Oven Cleaner.
The technical talk has me confused, but... The stripes have a gloss look which makes me wonder if there was clear coat added? Keep in mind I know nothing... So I'll post some close ups when I get a chance here...
-
I felt the same, but for another reason @BKL!
I'm in education! So I'll be looking into this... Will be asking if any HISD schools do such a thing. Hope it's not a conflict of interest or anything... We will see...
-
I'm very impulsive! Lol... That's how I got the Sling after all...
But I keep drooling at these pictures:
PAINTER'S 33RD SS MASTERPIECEAnd I know I want the legend to to do mine... Maybe his 37th? If not, 44th?
My birthday is coming in October... Maybe a gift? Though I'm constantly reminded the Sling should count for years to come...
-
Brilliant @TravAZ! Proof why this community rocks!
-
Awesome advice @BKL! I am more than willing to disassemble thanks to @Painters awesome videos! Already did it once to spray peel coat myself, but wasn't happy with it. Become even more obsessed when I'm doing the work...
I might be okay if someone else does it... Might not
Anyway, please send me more info in a conversation! And pictures! Hopefully you paid less than a grand... Because the graphics kit I'm considering is about $600.

I'm bringing this thread to light again, because I need help! And money! Lol...
I've had paint/wrap quotes go up and down...
The best quote has come from someone awesomely talented and he happens to frequent this forum...
If the money was there, no hesitation, I'd be driving the first chance I got to Indiana... Sadly, I'm on a budget... So...????
Now I'm thinking the AMR Graphics like @WOLF used on his first Sling... Or, and please don't bash me... Maaco?!? Going to try getting a quote from them. $299 special?
Really, I don't mind the base gray and would have probably just bought simple graphics from @robert.piner or @slingmods... But... I bought the Sling used and it had pinstriping painted. Add to it my OCDness and noticing the pinstriping wasn't the most professional it seems. There's purple smudges everywhere on the gray, on the black plastic (not really everywhere, but to me it seems like it), and some of it isn't symmetrical or lined up appropriately.
I know, I'm probably crazy... But thoughts or referrals to someone local in Houston is appreciated! Thanks to @DKF Texas for pointing me to some people local, but still out of budget...
-
The record for users on at a time? And @rabtechs Horsepower?
Hmmm....
Lol... Saw this while checking out the new monochromatic shirts! Almost pulled the trigger, but waiting on the Polo perhaps... And hat!
-
Lol... I'm waiting for the "for sale" sign!
Just kidding... I'm sure Rabs not selling!
