So my car won't be that light, but it does give me a few ideas. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

What are your plans for the final finish on your car? It would be cool if you metalized it, and shoot clear over that.. blinding.
It wouldn't weigh anymore than a paintjob. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) M |

When I'm done with it, I'd like to strip it down and acid dip it like Brad did, but thats too much work. Since it will probably never be finished, I better keep using raddle cans.

The top picture is the lightweight version. The driver's not wearing shoes.
My kind of thinking. Paul |

(i might even be in the market, and i've never been on a snowboard in my life. but i'm something of a nut for titanium stuff (he said while wearing his titanium MoMo watch, titanium Macy's bracelet, and Titanium Era wedding ring ...)) |
