[@805mtb]

Please upgrade the battery like you did with the motorcycle!

[@TheRealAlpha2]

Congrats! This gave me a huge smile the whole time seeing how far this thing came. I was against the gold wrap at first, but I can admit to being wrong now. For your first full wrap job, it's okay. It was a rough form to wrap without decent paneling to hide seams. I'd probably have the inside of the wheel wells and the door interiors painted black just to stamp out those last bits of pink and white, and I'm hoping a motor upgrade is still in the plans, but great to see the little rolling "Gold play button" (I was actually thinking that before you said it, too) in it's near final form.
