Custom Double Wide Build-Almost Done!

thanks man. Hopefully with a week all of the metal work will be done.

What should i do for color? i was thinking powdercoat the whole thing black... maybe silver?
 
I think you have come along quite well. Looks great. I almost think a black powercoat would look awesome, since you only see double wides in silver. Maybe even a matte black if that's available.

Keep up the great work!
 
I say do a custom paint job. Do it like a splatter job. Paint the bottom black, fade into yellow then orange with a red on top.
Or Start with blue on the bottom and fade into green with a yellow on top. Or do a complete black case and do a glow splatter on the inside of the case so if you put a light in it with the mirror in the back. It should give a unique effect.

Still need to make doors. That's really about it for metal work.

I think I'm going to do gloss black with copper rivets and hardware where possible.
 
It's gonna be powder coated black though. I dont want to risk having open metal rusting. I think black will look clean and fantastic. I thought about clear cote, but meh. If i really hate it I can have it sand blasted to bare metal again
