Man, that paint job is bad ass. I am still in the planning stages of painting my CARF 2.6 260. I hope mine turns out half as good.

Thanks for the comments, the paint job was done here in Chile by an aerographer that does all the Harley's here, yesterday I went flying again and let me tell you it's really an amazing plane for IMAC and 3D the DA 100 really pulls hard on vertical with the 27x10 biela prop.
Here goes another set of pics hope you like !!!!!

Casitas
Congrats for your new Extra, this is one of the best looking airplanes that I have ever seen!!!!!.
I'm very happy that to be part of this project as your supplier and builder. Please take great care of this model and try not to put dents a dings with your "hummer hands" or I will take it away from you !!!!!. You have no excuses now to not win the Basic this year and move to Sportman next year.
Well..... I hope you enjoy this beuty for a long time.

Your IMAC boss!!!!!
