Check out some of the roof painting threads. Most of that should apply directly to the nose piece.

also did u also paint the black rubber that went around wheels or did you just leave it off ?

I painted this 4 years ago and it still looks good, no peeling. Yes, I left the rubber off, when for a cleaner look.

wow very nice , thxs again , one other thing did you take the oiler off and mix the gas ?

Nate just wanted to jump in NEWGUY is right on with his paint job. The promoter is used for a flex agent on auto bumpers and such and will hold up for years with paint applied and clear coat.As for the injector pump I would say 90% of us mix gas. It's not the damage that can be caused if the pump goes out and you WONT know until it's to late. Just my thoughts K
