Well...........that's one way to make sure it stays yours forever. You might want to put the HVLP gun down.

hahah! I just like that it's different. I've seen enough wraps with skulls and nautical compasses. This is unique, creative, and well executed.

Hi M. Lively ! the tranny work like a charm now in both direction ! the hard part was to remove and put back the tranny itself the rebuilt was easy , thanks again !
The paint we use is from an industrial shop paint from someone i know , it'S not base coat+clear... i can't remember exaclty the name of that paint but it stick really well,pretty hard and the color is guarantee for 25 years so... I know some people escpecially here would keep the boat OEM but that's not us i like tuning and custom thing even my forester XT is now way more fun to drive than an a STi !!
Thanks all for your comments .

ngavdba -- I think he has the tag on the back not out of requirement, but out of a nod to the boats past. I like it. It gives it a "rat rod" look. Very unique and I dig when you've got the original items (in this case the original trailer tag from its original state.)
The good thing about plastidip is that it can be peeled off. I like the black look but also agree that properly maintained teak will last longer. He's not causing any damage with this -- the wood is still underneath and is probably better off now than it was before. Think we can make an argument that he's just saving/protecting the teak?

i cringed when i saw the teak too but it does go better with the new look. i like the dripping supra letters. even the mouth/teeth are growing on me.
nice job on the exhaust.
looking forward to seeing some on the water pics. i'm sure you're going to turn some heads.
