I will leave that answer to the body experts. I would think they would sand it and paint over it, but I honestly dont know.

If you are concerned with resale value, I would paint it a stock color. If you start going into custom paint colors then you limit the likability. You may actually hurt the resale value. I would try and find out which color is the most popular through DMH, DNA, or a dealer if you want to hit a broader consumer base. Maybe ask one of the dealers on the board to see what color sells the best for the SS. I would think (In order of popularity) Red, Yellow, then Black. </TD></TR></TABLE>

Yeah I can see what you mean. It makes sense. Thats why Im not thinking of anything wild like a race type paint job, or a weird kaleidescope of color type paintjob. I want to go solid on this one, and when I realized that solid blue SS's do not exist, I thought I would take the opportunity to make it happen. Im waiting on a lot of stuff to come in, my bike is in bits and pieces, so Im going to put it all together at once, but I want to make sure the body is here. If I do it, Ill make sure to post. But till then, anyone have any other suggestions?

BTW, mouser, I really like that, but I dont think it was the type of green I was thining of.

And Im glad you didnt mind that I used your bike jpuck. I took the first SS pic I found. And no I didnt forget to paint the helmet. Its too nice the way it is and Im too lazy to try and change it.
