    I wouldnt do it. I did this to mine originally and I spent almost $100 on the small spray cans. You would be better off doing MAACO or doing a makeshift booth in your garage. Those little cans are a waste of $$.

    Your right Amaes. Thats the Demello FJ that SDHQ is rebuilding from scratch. That thing was jacked up . There were unwelded tubes on the cage and all kinds of janky stuff. In Demello's defense the owner ran out of $$ and then local So Cal guys finished the work for free. It was not done by Demello standards. It was then sold and the new owner took it to SDHQ. Now its a beast in the making.

    Agreed, I wanna see that suspension work for it's money. Anyone can fly 70 over a straight with just billy 5100s. Its a ride for your life, but you can do it.
