Status: offline 		What do you think of my first dye job? Originally planned on blacking out the blue...but by the time I got to the wheels I liked the way the blue looked so dyed the inner wheels blue too. The RPM bumpers took the dye differently since they were silver to begin with, which gives them an almost chrome look...not sure if I like them or not. For those wondering it is Rit (Sunshine Orange and Royal Blue). This is my first post so I hope the pics come through.

Status: offline 		Thanks for the replies. Not sure what I'm going to do for the body yet. It'll have to be something simple like racing stripes since I've never painted a body before either. Maybe I can work my way up to some flames or something a little more exciting. I'll probably go with blue, orange, and black so as not to overwhelm with one color. Hopefully I'll have something done in a week or 2 and I'll post some pics of it.
