That's a good garage hanging sign, as my wife would say.

Well, now that it rolls, and stops kinda ok, I worked on some cosmetics for a change. Sprayed a little primer on some fenders too.

lol yeah probably what will end up happening with it, as I doubt the boss would let me put it on a post out front at work for my parking spot

won the sign in a drawing from a shop owner and Youtuber over in Cali, cool dude, hilarious content, pretty creative too

Interesting Carbon Fiber experiment, I'm trying it on the instrument bezel also. Awkward.
You smear epoxy on the piece, cover it with the fiber cloth, which is nearly impossible to cut and manipulate without shredding.
Then multiple layers of epoxy for depth, then clear coat.
Ain't as smooth as I'd like.
