X-metal original grey restoration

[#1 Stunna!]

Here's a high res pic of a J serial XM arm restored which I thought I was going to lose the serial. This type of serial is not engraved and appears printed.

Here's some XS orbitals: both were equally 'tired' condition (heavily used and lots of scratches). One has been restored, the other has been untouched for comparison

Up for a free trial? You'll need to cover the round trip shipping though

Great work!

Great work!

Thanks Stu! I know you recently got screwed by Oakley UK with the mishap and lost a 1st gen XM... I can't help you get it back but I can help you make one almost as good. Send me a frame and it's on the house to get it like mint in the glory of XM grey with a tight bridge. Round trip shipping will be your only bill.

Wow ... That is very nice of you and I really appreciate that pal, thank you very much indeed!!
I also very much appreciate your initial offers of assistance with parts and rebuilding for the damaged carbon frame. All the best with the new projects!

Here's the first official batch on my frames: serialized XX, Juliet orbitals, and the remaining XS orbital. The restoration looks as if they were freshly rolled out of the original X-metal factory!

There's an untouched, used condition nose bridge placed in the photos for color reference of these before/after high res pics
