Thats a relatively easy paint job, no masking and two colors, black is on the outside so you can use the lexan protective coating as the mask!

I spent a few hours figuring out a really good way to mount the Xo-1 bumper on my Gt-V2e. I modified the xo-1 bumper mount to sandwich in between the foam and lower bumper with the factory 3 screws. I plan on adding two more independent screws before I run it. I cut the wing area out of the rear of the ipanema warrior body but now the sides kinda flop around so I'm going to fab some velcro side mounts. Still looks pretty awesome even with the huge wheel wells I opened up for the xo-1 wheels.

I mounted the XO-1 high speed splitter to my old Ofna DM1-e the same way. Worked great.

Beauty, nice touch on the headlight buckets. Love the black. Both of mine are just matched to the body color.

I just copy the address and paste it into my text. Im not a fan of the insert video feature since most mobile devices don't have flash. I've got flash on my note 2 using firefox browser technique/hack. Works great! Had to have it to watch Street Outlaws on discovery channel on my phone.
