+1; Lets all start spreading this news so that we can potentially increase the resale value of our Rx to demand 1 Lakh & to shame on the 250cc 4 jokesOriginally posted by dafc View Post^it says touches a speed of 160kmph bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahaahahaha lol

@insane_x97 bai outstanding job with the PAINT! OMGOMGOMGOGMGOMGOMGOGMOGMG work on my petrol tank pl0x?
@aargee this is the guy's true 160kmph setup

obviously you can't ride it when it goes popping wheelies to straight 120kmph you just run it in autopilot mode and the switch is strategically hidden inside the headlight

bro if you are referring to transparent paints or something like candy color, they are really hard to find.after searching local market, i went for very thin layers + mixed paint with clear(used metallic red mixed with clear,two layers were enough to give beneath paintwork a different tint )although the paint guy was against it (:
simple clear coating just gives paint more shine, but material for pearl type effect(as they use in swift, suzuki access)are available.
in case of hunk i think its not glazing but pearl effect...
