Your bike would look really cool in this green. It's translucent so maybe over silver or gold?

@robbie boardz , really cool work on this build so far! I like your custom 'double down' tube. Muscle bikes are always great formats for creative ideas. They are just plain fun!

That paint kit looks awesome. I will watch with close attention as you go through the process.

RaT oN~!

That sucks

 

[robbie boardz]

That sucks

in the process of trying repair it i used the wrong primer i am sure of that but i hope i get to looking good from far

 

[SkyknightJohn]

body work and prep look great. Sand and re-spray the problem areas and give it a go!

There is time. Let it dry as fully as you can and get on with the seat and all else, 'cause this is a looker and shouldn't be quit for one faux-paus.
