Talking Laptop mount finished!

The paint is still a little sticky but It should cure quicker in the air conditioned truck than it will in my humid *** garage. Plus it looks cool haha!

Thanks! Does anyone know of something I can put between the paint and my laptop? Its dry enough to handle but I'm worried if I leave the lap top on there for a little while it will pull paint off. UPS just showed up with my EFI live and I want to try it out haha!

match that metal rim with a rubber mat. Leave the center open so you can see the road (LOL just kidding) just put nonstick stuff on the metal edge/rim IMO
