Greetings:
Simply Spectacular Aero!

Show us more? On second thought, such concentrated eye candy could be bad for my old eyes. Hmm, maybe flouridated drops for my corneas?

Great looking scooter!
So did you use a torch on the inner plastics to make them paintable?

Yes, using the torch after sanding I'm told helps the paint stick to the polyethylene plastic. Time will only tell if it really works.
I guess I'm the guinea pig for this painting process.

It's a product made for car turn signals that I tried for my scoot. I thought it gave them a little more flare and still kept them stock at the same time.
The wheels are painted black with a silver stripe kit made for a larger motorcycle rim that I adapted for a smaller 10' rim with honda "CBR" stickers added.

i went to autozone and bought these little LED strip plates.
there were 2 of them for 12.95 they fit perfectly between the frame and the outer lip of the floorboard. at least on the spree they do.

Couple questions... What radio did you use, as that seems nice and small. Also, what's the digital thingy reading 12.1? Voltage? haha.

Its just some radio fom China and has no branding on it.
When I added the radio and the light kit I added the Stinger voltmeter . I installed it to let me know when I needed a charge.
