98 custom all installed by me. some people i know have professionals do it...i tried it by myself, and had no issues at all...but then again, i am a very mechanically-inclined person. basically, i'm about done with this gun....i'm very happy with how it turned out, and it does well in both woods and speed ball.
what do ya think? comments/suggestions welcome. edit: i forgot a few things... ------------- 98 Custom milled;painted;J&J Ceramic;X-Chamber;R/T;Cyclone. |

Eh...not bad. You should've stuck with the stock internals. Mybe a little more "customization". ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

The cyclone on it kind of looks a little awkward.

Any one who has said the stock internals are the best.... Is a moron.
They say it with out experiance with the products. I know for a fact, Being a user myself, That the Dead On Proseal line of powertubes and front bolts are an ass load better then that shoddy plastic crap that is in a stock 98c. Not only is it more durable, But it cycles smoother and faster, expecialy after a good internal polishing. |

Well, I figured I'd try to save bandwidth and just add to my existing topic, rather than making a new thread. Also, this way, people can go to page 1 and see the before and after pictures. Anywho, after some decision making, I put some of your advice to work:

yeah, definitely consider taking the rest of the letters off later. but
for now, you could paint "Tippmann" black and put a line of black on
the barrel to match the x-chambet and Asa...just a thought to tie it
all together. It looks really neat !

yeah, i'm thinking that for this year, i'll leave it as it is shown, but when it starts to get cold again, i'm gonna mill the letters completely off...my brother has a 98 custom as well, and we both painted the green/brown scheme on our guns. other than milling, i think i'm done. ------------- 98 Custom milled;painted;J&J Ceramic;X-Chamber;R/T;Cyclone. |
