This is my new paint scheme.

Can you believe it's not finished yet? I've been calling the shop consistantly to no avail. After weeks of them not answering, or returning my messages, they pick up. They decide to tell me now (3 1/2 weeks later) that the silver code is wrong (13L). I told them THEY are wrong. That paint code is right. So, he talked and talked..... I wasn't really paying any attention.

Well, to wrap this all up, this guy is an awsome painter, but sorely lacks business skills. I gave him shaZam!, and now finally he's going past the sanding and priming stages. He was just going to let my stuff sit there without telling me about his delema. Can you believe that?

Remember when I said two weeks, geez.

I've been wondering if it was finished yet. Please post a picture when it's done. The paint scheme is AWESOME! I would love it if my bike looked like that. Maybe if I get my bike repainted, I could hire you to design a look for mine!

3 weeks with no riding :o  That is no fun at all.

love the paint job.

have you seen the icon helmet that has the same colors?

I'd go really well with your newly painted bike.

Well, it's too late now (since the bike's being painted - hopefully - as I type), but I love that bike! It's very retro, very sweet. Love the color.

mrslush50

would this helmet look sweet with Anti's new paint or what?


The Antibody

Thats hilarious slush! I already bought that helmet. Good taste man.

Sprint,
  It's terrible! I feel like I got bugs crawlin all over me. I need to ride!

kick ass !! I would definately go with painting the bar white too, though. other than that, that looks great!!!!
I regret that I have but one ass to ride a bike with.

i almost thought that maybe you got the idea for the bike from the helmet.

I'm thinking of buying the same helmet.  (different color.)
what do you think of it?

i've heard that for an inexpensive helmet it's pretty nice.  I've tried one on and I love the way it fits, but I'm a little bit worried about how the padding will hold up over time.

It's a nice helmet slush. I love the top pop-up vent. It's comfy, has a quick release visor, removable lining, all that crap. Mine still has to break in(obviously because I haven't ridden since I bought it) It's funny, you'd think I would have come up with the paint from the helmet. To the contrary, I said well, now that the bike is being painted, I need a helmet to look good. I went to www.helmetharbor.com which I recomend, and there it was!

Edit: I called the painters, bitched and it will be ready for inspection and clearcoat on Tues.  Awesome!
