I was wondering if anyone had ever tryed painting a Forks lowers and crowns before? If you have how did you do it. Did you take off the paint first of just paint over the existing paint?

yeah its really easy. if you want it to look good, sand it with very fine sandpaper, mask off the stanchions and knobs, put a coat of primer on, lightly sand that, put another coat of primer on, then whatever color you want, sand, and the paint another coat or two. if you don't really care just put on a few coats of whatever. Krylon semi-flat black looks sick...
