MartyP Posted February 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 I found mine on ebay, I message the guy and asked him if i could have a lime green one Otherwise a stensil could work? print it off and cut it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Green Giant Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 yeah thats what i was going to do, only problem is how to strip the paint off just the hoodride bit!? maybe a stencil and spray some paint stripper onto the paint!? should work i guess! haha no biggy if i feck it up, il just strip the lot!

lunalupi Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Mask up the bonnet with something thick, then sand down the paintwork in the stencil? I'd be worried about trying to paint stripper a small area and maybe having it run..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Green Giant Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 (edited) thats probably a better idea actually! i might use a grinder on it! different sized grinders!! im going to sand down my badge too so il do it at the same time!
