Seat(belt) painting wasn't going so hot, so I reversed course and sprayed the belts first, then hand painted the seat around them....much easier.

Not quite done with it yet, but here it is minus final washes and paintwork.

Ryan,
   "Smooth and clean" as Andreas has already said. I marvel at your results, not a hint of less then perfect joins and details! Great work to this point, and a promise of more to come. You have another winner in progress here.
Cheers,
Lance

Many thanks guys, the crispy/ clean look comes at a price....

Stripped the frame once; stripped the IP once and stripped the seat thrice!

Up next is the L/R fuse halves, I already have the linen on them, just need to mask and spray the wood parts.

There may be a price for the quality of your workmanship Ryan, but it is cetainly worth paying when viewed from this seat! Words fail to express my admiration for the seat and belts.
