  2. thats what a buddy in my garrison told me and your right it looks great... also i was told to use the "hook" side of velcro on the inner piece of armor not outwer because when you put them on and take them off if the hook side of velcro is facing your underarmor or whatever it will tear it up
  3. only in back for velcro... in front it butt jointed with abs strips
  4. yeah i noticed that its pretty bad... i got some appliance touch up paint i'm going to clean all that up with tonight...
  5. here are some pics of the build so far... haven't had a whole lot of time or energy to work on it... my wife's helmet is the the pink one still in progress
  6. pm smitty... he has one with a metal stock

  14. ok well i'm going to sand it next week then paint again with pink at closer distance then wet sand till its smooth and then hit it with clear
  15. what do you consider fine and super fine grit... i mean technically 150 is fine but you can get automotive in 1000 and maybe higher
