So I've had the A-5 for a year now and Ive put alot into upping it. It has the E-grip, JCS double trig, Flatline barrel, Ricochet hopper and a supafly bolt. Im going to repaint it because it's losing its "finish". The paint is just chipping off. So what would you reccommend for colors or fades? I was sorta thinking a silver to blue fade would look awesome. Also I like orange and green so what about a green to orange fade. Another option would be just plain red. When you post please put which of these you like and your own suggestion. THX! ------------- My guns name is Mr. Max in remembrance of my dog that got hit by a car: Tippmann A-5 Ricochet R-5 JCS double Trigger Tippmann E-Grip Flatline Barrel Do you have the need for speed? |

yeah, eventually I want to paint my 98c with a black to blue fade Out of curiosity, how much does a paintjob cost? ------------- NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil. |

^^^If you do it yourself not much at all. A thing of paint, primer, and clear coat each cost around $3 so that's about $10 in all for the paint. Back to the thread, I would do an Orange to Black fade. That would look sweet. ------------- http://www.macdev.net - MacDev Militia http://www.alienpb.com - Alien - Because winning is more fun. |

are you doing it yourself? if so, the silver to green fade. if you are having a company do it for you, have them do some really cool thing. -------------
