Steps

Step 1

Clear the front of the G3 barrel (remove grip, sand down front and small squares)

Step 2

Cut the Signo DX grip to 1.2 cm from the front and put it onto the front of the G3

Step 3

Cut off the small tip on the G3 rubber stopper so that there’s a hole and put it into the front of the G3 (in the screw thread area)

Step 4

Screw on the Plastic G3 tip onto the barrel

Step 5

Put the whole Supergrip grip onto the front of the G3 barrel (striped part facing out)

Step 6

Put the Hi-Tec C tip into the Supergrip grip, followed by the Metal G3 tip (tip stack will be Plastic G3 > Hi-Tec C > Metal G3)

Step 7

Clear the Frixion Colors cap (remove rubber nub, plastic piece and remove the small clip on the side)

Step 8

Screw the Jell.Be tip onto the Rubber 80 tip

Step 9

Insert the tip stack into the Frixion Colors cap Rubber 80 tip first (the Jell.Be tip should be facing the inside of the cap) (Jell.Be <> Rubber 80 →)

Step 10

Cut your Hyper Jell / Jimknock grip to 3.1–3.2 cm from the rounded side and put it into the cap

Step 11

Cut 3 blocks of G3 grip, 2 blocks of Anyball grip and 3 blocks of D1-k grip

Step 12

Put the G3 grip section onto the cap first, followed by the Anyball grip section and finally the D1-k grip section

Step 13

Cut the Hybrid Fine backplug to 8 mm from the rounded end and plug it into the top of the Frixion Colors cap

Step 14

Wrap a small strip of tape around the back of the G3 barrel (VAIN only wraps the tape around halfway around the barrel) and add an insert

Notes

A G3 on the heavier end from VAIN. This mod was named after a song.

Jell.Be, plastic G3 and D1-k are rather hard to find, though Jell.Be can be found under J-Roller RX.
