Not wrap, but custom painted pros. I think I will paint mine white this year, powder coat the tunnel

 

[mountainhorse]

Paint the tunnel with a good paint like U-Tech 2 part urethane... You wont even need to strip it all the way down to nothing...

why would anyone bother with paint ?Im not a big fan of wraps. but IMO paint just isnt worth it with wraps and hydro dip being so durable, versatile, removable .etc

Looks really good, what kind of paint did you use on the tunnel, hood?

The tunnel is wrapped, the hood used DuPont paint.

 

[CDK]

Yup, just reread your post. Any problems with the paint flaking at all?

 

[icr]

None, it's more scratch resistant than the oem paint as well.

 

[POLZIN]

100.00 for a hood and panels seems super cheap

 

[icr]

You're right, I forgot to say I supplied the paint. That's also a slightly discounted labor rate as I'm friends with the painter.

 

[icr]

Although to be fair the $150 tunnel wrap was discounted as well, I believe retail is $200

just added the white le hood to it... havent done all the things i want with it yet.. too busy riding

 

[Maine-Rider]

Where did you get tunnel wrap? Does it help with the icing? Durable?

Working on a black one right now powder coating tunnels really sheds snow during riding. Built the green one, orange one, and still working on the blue one as well as a totally black and matt black one

This sled is 100% awesomeness. Great job, and I hope you don't mind me using it as some inspiration for my summer project...

Agreed... I like how clean it looks... Too many wraps these days with way to much going on.

I agree, I cant stand the current "busy" wraps but really like wrapping. Geeze guys not everyone wants 15 geometric flaming skulls and a zillion stripes
