will do some outside shoots at weekend, just was dying to show all!!!!
:) :) :) :)
Unorthodox but cool. Not as cool as the one Moanjam's boyfriend painted, though. ;D
Lots of nice goodies up in that loft. You'd have loads more room up there if you cut out out some of that unsightly timber framing ;D
-
Its a nice build,nice spec aswell but? ::) It doesn't jump off the page at you,when you look at it? sorry ??? (just my personal opinion bud :daumenhoch:)
-
Something diferent from the norm 8), good on you for having the balls to do it and in my opinion succeeding :daumenhoch:
( STEALTHWAY ??? ............ mmmmm maybe not :D ;D )
Like the bike , like the collection in the background and will probably like what came in those Blue shoe boxes ..................adidas trainers :smitten: a RADster with taste ;)
-
i like it it mate good on you for being different :daumenhoch:
-
Looks great, but bin the Chrome stickers... I thought it was an Aero Pro Burner when I first looked at the photo ;D
-
sh!t!!!!! a burner look-alike in my loft.... ???
i wont sleep tonight.... ;D
-
black black black black makes a change, looks nice though :daumenhoch:
-
Like it Sam :daumenhoch:
also liking the collection in the background :coolsmiley:
-
Like it Sam :daumenhoch:

Mate i know the feeling ::) ;D
-
its mint sam, nice1, I like things that are different to how they should be :daumenhoch:
-
Sorry, It aint floating my boat :-\ , just my opinion which normally means fook all :D
Kudos for being different though :daumenhoch:
:coolsmiley:
-
Can't make my mind up - keep goin back n forth :-\
Outside pics required :LolLolLolLol:
Nice parts selection :coolsmiley:
-
Very very nice. I like something different, and that is cool as tits.
A pedant notes:Sleath? Do you mean Stealth?
-
The jury is out for me on this one; maybe it's the decals :-\.
Will pop back and have another look in the morning :daumenhoch:.
-
looks cool but not keen on the bars, mk2 ez's, done black with the chrome crossbars would set it off much better, IMO 8)
-
I am looking at it and know i should like it more than i do. It's definately down to the pics. I look forward to seeing the outside ones to give it some justice because it is a lovely build :daumenhoch: :coolsmiley:
-
Nice one Sammy. Looks ok pal but get it outside when the sun's out. :4_17_5:
-
I reckon chrome bars and red decals would work out a treat :daumenhoch:
Love the chrome disc and charinring; how about a parts rundown ;)
-
different, please spell correct, gets on my nerves :daumenhoch: :LolLolLolLol:
-
I like it, but I'm biased as those decals are lush!
you've re-arranged your loft Sam (or tidied it!)
-
love the decals del... torkertony has just seen it in the flesh and says it all looks mint, loft defo hasnt had a tidy since you last come... more of a re-arrangement... :)
-
by the way, i 've done those decals you wanted, I was hoping to get those panels this weekend so might pop over if they turn up in time, if not I'll post them... or if you want them sharpish I'll post them right away... lmk
-
Sam, that looks fookin great mate - can't wait to see it outside :daumenhoch:
I was only talking the other month with Del about doing me a custom set of Haro "Stealthstyler" decals in dark grey to go on an all-black Sport, but I've buckled under the pressure and gone with diamond white and blue bits to tow the conformist's line :uglystupid2:
Build this once though - my Ammaco 202 in black :smitten:

Cheers - Spen :daumenhoch:

no rush del, so whenever.... ;)
or can meet you again near the car auctions, if you get the panels....

ive been studying this build for some time, i think a black chain ring instead of the silver one, and chrome bars,this would balance it out nicely. :daumenhoch:
-
love it sam . i bought a skyway to black it a while ago but a person off hear wanted it . so i told him my plans and he went for "seat magic black" with a twist . i do have pics of it some where but i carnt let the cat out of the bag as i think its nearly done . but yeah sam 100% i love a black ta
-
comes to life in the light sam, is it a flat black or is there metallic in there ??
-
no matalic dean, its very shiney jet black... :)
-
Have you tried one of your chrome wheel sets on it? Bet they would look pretty sweet. I aint knocking the Graphites, mind. :angel:
-
Liking that Sam, big balls fella :daumenhoch:

That's it solved then... Chrome effect Tuffs like the ones used on one of my favourite builds from a Streetbeat build-off. :daumenhoch:
