thanks, my paint job is fading and showing its age. I didn't know much about customizing when I did this thing. I was going to take some bridge layer ramps I got and put them in the back but never got around to it.

I was in about the same boat with mine, just about the only thing that i was stoked was the front logo ( never occurred to me to put them on the floors as well, nice touch). in fact, I knew so little that i used literally the cheapest Walmart flat black rattle can available. needless to say, it was a flaky mess less than 3 months in. yours has DEFINITELY aged better!

I did the rattle bomb on mine to and if you look in spots the paint is speckled where is flaked off. I got this from a huge lot of parts and already having one from childhood I was like wtf do I do with this so I thought hey its a modular transportable base so cobra has captured it and repurposed it.
I didn't even clean this thing which is where the paint problem lies. I just sprayed it, even with no primer because I had forgot to buy some and was like screw it. I used some old paneling for the floor so to cover up the lines I used craft paper for the floor when I should have used a big sheet of paper instead of several little ones. I learned a lot from this little project. back in the day she was great and even had offers to sell it. if I did it over again I would do the construction the same, just prepped it a lot better and used a solid sheet of paper.
