I think it looks great to, very unique. I have a thor sweater with those designs on it like the squares, but they're smaller. New style no one has.
Not done yet. Those are just the 2 base layers. The next layer of white will break it up quite a bit.

Nice looking sled, you should have gone with like a sno camo that is whith and black, then on that have more white. Then for the side pannels i would do the side pannels with more black then white. just my 2 cence. then i might even paint the screens red or yellow.
I laid the black down, then the "river rock" and literally right now I'm laying out and getting ready to spray the white.
A whole bunch of masking tape.....not done yet, ran out of tape and had to go into town.

hmmmm....just put down the last layer of white paint. Going to have to wait a bit to let the paint dry and peel the tape.
The wait SUCKS  ...so I'll drink some more PBR.

Not sure. Its Krylon Fusion so don't know if there's anything made that'll work decent on it.

OMG, no! Way too much work. I probably spent 6 hours total on this which really isn't that bad for how much taping it took. Taping off for the white layer was a total PITA though! 2 entire panels would suck. Definitely would do a wrap for that. Now it's just this hood and black panels, black bumper, yellow skis. Keeping it simple, relatively.

Thanks man! I actually sold the 440 seat and am getting the new style boss seat for a replacement http://bossseats.com/bossseats/images/st...%20011.jpg

I've got one more layer of gray to spray on the tunnel and then I'll be putting it all back together. Sled is ripped down to the chassis right now. Hopefully by the end of the day the body work will be all back on.

Oh. nice. I've herd those new boss seats are really nice and the wait for them is shorter this year i guess. I have seen them on the f-cats and they look really good. same with rev's.
Your hood looks so nice on your sled

looks good! are you going to put any yellow on the hood?
Owning a race sled is like having a totally hot girlfriend..... All of your friends want to see it, feel it and check it out..... They all want to know what it is like to ride it, but if they only knew how much time and money it takes to keep one up, they would call you a fool!

Hell yeah dude I'll be up there, I finally have a sled with enough motor to clear the kicker so it should be fun. You planning on ramping the rev even with the 136?

It jumps pretty well with the 136. I was pissed I didn't nut up and hit the spine jump last year.

Nut up or shut up, haha..
That looks really good, new seat should look good too..White skis, or those ones that come in snow camo would look good on it as well, i think they're slydogs?

Probably the same one. It was HUGE, but I saw alot of guys come up way short and it wasn't anything. Dylan said it was more intimidating then anything. All of us Menomonie guys are Gina's....Mikey hit the 100' snow to snow double ontop of the hill and that was the biggest anyone went. I was about to hit it, then ran out of gas on an in-run. The last time I was there I would have hit the spine but it was the last rideable day at that big event thing at the end of the year and there were way too many good guys to watch me straight up goon it. We hit the snow step-up quite a bit that day instead. Then I was hitting the uphill jump that's right next to the step-down on the track a bunch too. I've got the orange castle gear, crazy dave is the other guy with just a plaid jacket doing heel clickers and crap. Jesse's the fat guy. Mikes got a bunch of video but I don't have it on my computer, yet.
