    that lower fuel shield is probably gonna be the first to start showing winter weathering, the paint coating on that is super thin i think

    Its on and ready haul me up a cliff. Very happy with the outcome of it. I want to thank @koditten for the help, getting me a bracket welded on for the head unit and the confidence boost to just up and wire it myself.

    Wow! That looks great!

    I actually have mine on the hoist now. My hope was to coat mine after work tonight.

    Looks amazing for 22 years old.
