Okay, this is it.

LOCKING IT UP :)

Stem is now black so as other parts like the brakes, saddle pose, clips and stand. Oh, I sprayed my handle grip too and surprisingly the paint did not come off even i twisted it hard.

Got the plastic piece at my uncle shop then his designer help me to cut the "5" using the machine. I cut the plastic into shape the grind to rounded corner and drilled two holes with the battery drill. Make sure u mark and dig a little hole with the screw first to avoid slip off.

No.5

I put a new wrap on the saddle,
Bring to the cushion shop nearby my house.
RM15 for the wrapping.

Body fully matte black including the new head bearing area.

I'm spraying my rims black too but this part going to sand it off, if not it is going to look dirty after use of brakes. So after sand it is now in clean metal color.

I bought these three items last week, the mudguard is cool and cost only rm12. I got a new set of pedals as the old one can't be repaired so as the steering head bearing.

There's not much work on the bar just a little rust - sand and off and sprayed. The grip area remain unspray, afraid the grip will get stucked with the paint in the future.
*having problem with stuck seat post now, hammering it up the whole night + sorry to my neighbors for the noise pollution.

Okay this is my hard-earned bike when I was young. I bought it by parts separately. As I remember, I bought the used GT body for rm40, handle rm30, used back peg for rm20 trade my favorite Nikko RC car for the back wheel, front wheel and GT sprocket from dad and aunt as birthday present and Haro seat for rm70 if not mistaken. It was my gold before, but then after high school I left it under the rain for years. It is rusted but after some replacement it is still rideable. But I'm not satisfied so I wanted to refurbish it. I'm gonna spray it to solid color well of course chromes are nicer but I want to try to keep all the ori parts instead of replacing them with new ones.
