heres my shine runner.

Unfortunately this site seems to shrink down my pictures.. so the pics are suppose to be larger.

i wish someone would look into changing that to allow 1024 X768 size...... lol

Great job James, I love the way you achieved the paint chipping and mud splatters up the sides.

Excellent job !!
