Anyone done any special one of a kind custom paint jobs if so post some pix. I'm toying with the idea of getting Elise a Vino so she won't wreck mine (like the Vino-Bajaj garage incident a few months ago!) I'm thinking of letting her have mine, and getting an 05 but this time do a custom paint on it! just an idea.

I'm planning on the custom paint. I have yet to decide what to do though. When I get done with the stuff necessary to get it running i will then sand down the scratches and get painting. I've printed your paint "how to" put have yet to look into it more than that. Do know a great air brusher though. I buy supplies and she paints.
My ideas are mostly solid color or a slight fad in colors. unsure of any design.
It'll be my winter project.

I took all the stickers off of my Zuma.
It still says Yamaha on the seat which is fine- cops will know it is a high-end street legal scooter and leave me alone I hope.
I like the "shark" look- grey and black with no markings except the flaming white skull on my rear fender.

Wish I thought of it before I took my YAMAHA off my back seat, but when I ride, I have a helmet which is more than I can say for most other scooterists. I found a strange loop hole in MD law that does not require moped riders to wear a helmet even though we have a state law mandating helmet use for motorcycles and even bicycles! Since I always wear a helmet, and usually a paramilitary riding apparel, the cops never really bother me, and if they do, then I have my old shield still.
