All four wheels are painted and mounted to the knobby dirt tires. 🎸

To make that gold, I used Createx Pearl White, Metallic Charcoal, Golden Yellow, and a dash of Opaque Red to counteract some green I was getting.
I applied it with an Iwata Revolution.
 
I have been staring at these wheels the past couple days and they are looking green to me. I painted the back section of the inner roll cage this same color and to no surprise is also looking green to me.

I like the color, I’m just going for a dark gold and this isn’t it.
Back to mixing up some paint.

Omit the red. 😉
 
I won’t tell my wife you said this man, she said “red cancels out green” 😂

Go Re-peep the Jammin’ CRT.5 thread.. Check out my motor mount, and wing stay posts.. Magnesium, yellow, white. 🫣

And for the sake of argument-wifey is always right. 😂

I am wondering if I should do the same, match the shock towers and chassis color, or go a C hair darker.

I prefer all my stuff to jive.. difficult with the Jammin’ stuff though-as the hue’s varied wildly between vehicles.. or aftermarket parts..
