Title: Eurekaâ€¦I find a beautiful finish for my Turbo
Post by: scary_leary on March 17, 2006, 10:01 PM: Local company did this post for me.
It goes on like water..they just drench the post..the tint just runs off and leaves this finish behind.

Its hard with my camera too show just how good the finish is.

Post by: scary_leary on March 17, 2006, 11:03 PM: It’s a smoke finish, a lot of people say the turbo finish has the blue-ish hue through the smoke.
Yes its does, but in another light theres a purple-ish tint in there too..like black ink.

Havent got a price for the bike yet..just this sample.

That's a bit of a trek but worth it if the finish is good :daumenhoch:
