So my wife was upset the paint faded on our pink camo 50cc ATV from Gio after only one year..so she took it upon herself to paint the darn thing while she's away visiting a friend in Calgary. I only heard about this endeavour via txt messaging and the picture was aquired the same way..

Sorry for the bad photo quality her cell phone cam is just not the same as the Canon 40D + 1 million dollar lens she has.

..She tells me she thinks it might need another coat of some paint she chose herself at Canadian Tire, along with primer first. :?:

Apparently the man of the farm took the body kit off and they painted it and put it back on, so I doubt masking tape was needed, other than the foot wells.

It doesn't look too bad from the photo... my kid likes it which is what really matters I guess.

Heck, you can ride it in front of your neighbors now!

Looks like they did a good job.

I think the "Popsicle Purple" is much nicer than "Pink Camouflage!" :D When you have the opportunity, please post more photos! :)
