Copper&Black's Complete Custom Build Thread

[DoubleR]

You are doing a great job, can't wait for the finish product. So motivating

Very nice. Keep up the good work. What kind of grill is that?

 

[Copper&Black]

Thanks Guys, That’s a Putco Grill insert I decided to make it a grill replacement. There are some areas on both sides where the mounting holes used to be, once black it won't be noticeable. If it bothers me, I might just make a C and B badge to mount in those spots.

I like I like!

 

[Copper&Black]

Thanks Z-56

Here is where I am now. Grill has been finished other then the paint. I tacked all the edges down with epoxy and then came back over it with some Tiger hair fiberglass to lock her in. Now she's not going ANYWHERE, and is rock solid. I would have thought being an insert it might have a little give, but nope. All thats left for the grill now is primer and black paint.

Pics...Check out the gap between the grill and the bumper, clean...

[Copper&Black]

Thanks man,

Came home to a UPS Christmas. Thanks again to Charlie over at Dynamat!

 

[ecordell]

I'd hope they sent you something with as much of that shit you put on your rig lol

Went thru every page of the thread wow thats a long interesting thread. Nice build, love the matching bike.

I really need to do something with my time like this, well i got time but no funds

 

[Copper&Black]

Thanks HK

Here is where I am now, Back of the grill and the piece that goes above the grill have been painted. I also didn't like the sanded texture of the yellow primer so I gave the hood a shot of High end boat primer and now she sanded out to as smooth as a baby's butt.

Alright, enough with the teasers lol, get that shit painted and back together so we can see all your hard worked paid off.

Haha I'm not trying to tease, this crap takes time. I'm prepping other small areas of my truck that need to get touched up, Dings, scratches, a couple previous paint flaws, rear hatch where the wiper used to be, to get it ready for the car paint booth I will be renting out a couple blocks from my shop. I can't paint it in my shop b/c my mini booth is only designed for small things. Also my girl's parents are in town so I have to play host for the next couple days.....Don't they know I have things to do!

Also sent in a sponsorship app to KMC wheels to see if they are interested...

I'm in love with these, if it had some Copper Brembo calipers behind it it would be a jaw dropper...

 

[Redhoe01]

Those are nice rims. They always look good with black. I usually like a lipped rim, but those look good enough to not have to have one.

 

[Young28]

wat size wheels ? will look sick regardless

 

[Copper&Black]

I'm thinking some 24's, the 26's might make for a rough ride.

Any slide looks good except chromie slides ...they just don't sit well IMO

That black would look hella wicked ....paint to match

[yukondoit]
