Hey, sorry for hijacking. I have a Cove Peeler that i use for freeriding I think they are a superb bike as mine has never let me down!

yeah the marin is mine, good little bike, prob too much bike for me haha

had been using it to go to work on lol so i put slicks on it, was a 16 mile commute there and back,

paint cant be rushed so just let them take there time,

as for the handles, na not this time, whites fine you can get away with it, but on this colour any slight imperfection and you see it, plus i wanted it done pronto haha

My Hustler will take a lot more than the little drop-offs I can do but it is bullet proof which is nice to know.

Cheers.

Hi Jake the car looks ace

Just an observation, the pos clamp on the battery looks rather close to the intercooler pipe. Should the pipe be wrapped with rubber ?

here are some better looking pics and the pics of the ic pipes lagged aswell as the downpipe and turbo wrapped and then jacketed too.

i used the cheaper 600c wrap for the ic pipes and then the turbo and down pipe i used dei wrapp it can withstand 2000c
