Pimp My Mower - L120 Refurbishment

I inherited a broken down, rotting, L120 mower and was dared to refurbish it pimp my ride style. So I happily obliged....
Full strip down and paint/rust removal from body panel, transmission overhaul and full service of engine and fuel system, chameleon flipped paint, spoiler, music reacting lighting strips front/rear and underneath (video won't upload), gold rims, new seat, mower deck refurb plus more.
It was all done by myself and shockingly it was cheaper to buy most of the spares/service gear from america and have it shipped from america than to get it locally from john deere suppliers in the uk.
It was just for a bit of fun and apologies to all the john deere purists who will no doubt hate I've gone away from authentic refurb only, its just a bit of fun and the mower should last a long time now.
If anyone else has done this, it would be good to see.

I will say it is interesting! It's your tractor, do it now you want. Ive been wanting to paint one with the 70s snowmobile metal flake paint.

We are all allowed things to make them what we want. Looks like you won
the dare!!
Nice work on the pimping out.
So does the spoiler help keep the grass flowing better?😂

Better then letting is rot away for sure nice customization on , question though how much added traction are you getting with the down force from the spoiler might be worth that over a set of bar tires
