That's definately different. I'm diggin on it.

 

I definately like that. But if it were mine, I'd have to have a matching tattoo wrapped around my arm.

 

THats really cool! I like it :rockon:

 

Thats the thing. I dont like tats.... I do like tribals alot sooo hrmm why not paint the car up with some I still gotta do the tunk lid. I just gotta get my hands on a mig welder to fill in two holes.

Thanks guys

Kat

 

Looks really cool. Original too.

 

I like it !! is it yours?
Aj

 

Yep thats my RS. It was wearing primer for 2 years lol



Kat

 

I liked it better before j/k. It looks really good.

 

That's very interesting and I love it. Good job.

 

Not my cup of tea

 

but it's my cup of kool-aid

that's bad!

 

Not a big fan of it, but its your car so if you like it, thats all that counts.

 

lol.... i'm sorry, but in that last picture i can't help, but picture the owner hanging from the limb of a branch above his drive way, just so he can get a good picture of all of it, hehe... sorry, i'm immature, anyway, i love the originality of the paint job, and i think if the owner has a similar tatoo around his arm or something, then it becomes ten times cooler. imagine if he weighs like 250lbs or pure muscle, benching around 450lbs...... watch out! lol
P.S. This is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were elminated

 

nice

 

That looks pretty sweet! I like it, I like it!

 

I like it. It is different, and makes your car stand out. Looks like a good job.

I like stripes myself, but that is original and everyone has to remember that you could paint it again if you get tired of it.

I may get rid of my stripes someday, but proably not.

 

SWEET!!:rockon:

 

love it!

 

definately sweet! ive never seen anyone do it before...

i think you should do somehting with the side of the ride... to make it stand out a bit more... but for what you got going right now... looks awsome

jon

 

Actually I was hanging out the 3rd story window from my house As for being 450 lbs... Nahhh far from it. I'm only 6'4" and about 205 pounds with a 20 pound gut lol

Thanks for the compliaments guys. I still gotta lot of work todo on the stripes (like go arround the edges with a fine brush to smooth out all the tape marks) fix a few screw ups, wet sand and buff out the sum bitch

Really tho in a few years the car is gonna get repainted again. Except for I am gonna do it in pearl white for the body and chrome illusions for the stripes.

Definately cool man. Now, 10 or 15 years down the road the whole tribal thing may not be that cool anymore, but who knows.
I'd do it on my car.

 

that looks really cool. Kat, what color white is the paint? I'm getting mine done really soon and that is the color I want. I wish i could think of something cool for my car. Actually, my car looks pretty cool with a white body, flat black nose and spoiler, and one flat black front ground effect. It will be all white soon though with a gold bird on the hood.

that looks amazing i love it did you use stencils or mask it all off?

:hail: :hail: :hail: :hail: :hail:

 

Very cool take on stripes man. Very cool indeed.

 

Not just is it a nice paint job, you do good tribal designs also. they are harder then they look.

 

Not something you see everyday. I like it.

 

If your truly as hardcore as your car looks.. get the same tribals on your arms... Looks sweet though

 

Thanks guys and I didnt design the tribals. I can draw worth a **** I just can do the manual labor. A friend of mine came up with them You can see more of his stuff at www.geocities.com/nevermorescage/dblhlx/ and you can e-mail him at nevremorescage@yahoo.com if ya want him to make something up for ya.

omnipotentgoku, Umm personally I cant stand tat's on myself on anyone else go for it. For some reason I like the way that tribals look and when J came up with the idea of putting tribal stripes on the car I kinda had todo it.. Sooo thats how it came about

junkie Heres what I did..



I taped off the whole hood, layed down a template (I didnt take a pic of if) measured it all off got it lines up, cut through the template into the tape, peeled the tape back, sprayed the black, 2 coats of clear, peeled the rest of the tape off, sprayed another heave coat of clear and thats that.

HTH

Kat

 

Sweet! I'm not a huge fan of graphics, but that tribal design is really nice, not too over stated.

 

Kat, I thought you knew I had one you could use? I have to get it back from my dad's friend's house but you can use it.

 

How did you not cut into the hood at and point...? (Looks good, BTW)

 

You cut a little into the current paint, but changing blades ever 4-5 cuts is necessary in most cases to keep the blades razor sharp so you don't have to push hard to cut the tape away.

Plus its best to actually stip that space down to bare metal and then reprime and paint so its as even as possible. This isn't always possible.

I know Kat just painted over the current white because its getting redone soon and he threw some clear over the entire hood to equal it out a bit.
