Well, I had actually repainted the plastics once. Painted them blue. They were white stock. And white is so boring to me (no offense to anyone with white blasters...)

So heres what it looked like then.

So i got a hair up my butt, and decided to strip it down, replace all the bearings/bushings grease everything.

I dont have a lot of pics. But I got a little carried away and ended up taking EVERYTHING off, and had it sand blasted.

I couldnt afford to powdercoat it at the time, so I went ahead and painted it all satin black, with some high performance paint. It actually has held up very very well.

Whatcha think?
 
I still need to paint the wheels, but im waiting to get new tires b4 i do that. And I have my new seat cover to put on, so we'll see what it looks like.
I may just do a black one to finish off the "MASTER BLASTER" Theme (That name is from Mad max beyond thunder dome if you didnt know)

redoing the blaster

I am redoing my blaster frame, a-arms and rear arm. I am having difficulty with getting the frame cleaned up. how much was it to get it sand blasted?
 
well it lookes pretty good but put a metallic silver seat and get some duglas .125 rims and razr mx's put on the back and it will look awesome
 
good job.... for some reason i don't like the white showing under the fenders....just a thought. dark gray or silver would look tight painted on the underside.

but as is... it still looks mucho better than mine.
 
Just take a can of sray paint to the fenders for under neath. No point in making it look to nice, they always get dinged up under there anyway.
 
Yea, I didnt paint the undersides because at the time i thought meh, they wont show, and will just get covered in mud anyway.

Then i realized after taking those pictures that they did show, and looked horrible.

So what im going to do is paint them with some stuff called Slip plate. My dad always uses it on the underside of lawn mower decks. Its kind of a thicker paint that has to be brushed on. But what it does, is keeps things from sticking to it. it should make the mud not stick to bad. And its like a charcoal black color.

Im going to get different tires soon, but the wheels will probably have to wait for a while. What color should i paint them? I never finished the wheels, because i knew i was getting new tires at some point, and figured i'd just blast the wheels when i take them off.

and it cost about 75 bucks to have it sand blasted. that was everything.
