Had this on the go for a while and finally got round to putting the final touches to it today, will probably be my last build (I hope! :P) hope you like it!

I got it just after last MK11 and took ages deciding whether or not to strip it and paint or rechrome it but decided the frame was too good so I just gave that a good clean up and left the OG decals on it as a survivor frame. The forks were missing most of the chrome on the insides though and the bars had a couple of dings so I had them filled, polished and then the bars and forks rechromed. Thanks Haro Joe for the 10 / 10 chrome job! :daumenhoch:

Here's the bundle as I received it, you can see the forks with the missing chrome and the dings in the bars.





Heres the bars being worked on before getting a good polish and rechrome.
