Got my parts back from the painter...

Well, like the topic says I got my parts back from the painter today. Why does it always feel like forever when your waiting on shiny new or shiny used parts? Anyway, bike is an '03 and was Force Silver. It was tipped over by the previous owner in his driveway. Just some light scuffs on the plastics, really not a big deal. I sanded down the scratches and was going to repaint the silver but then I thought "If I'm going to pay someone to paint this, I might as well repaint it a color that I REALLY like". About the same time I bought some side scoops for the Mustang that needed to be painted. I thought the price to paint the scoops seemed a little too high, and I had checked with a couple different shops. It was at this point that I had one of those retarded epiphanies, as I like to call them. Why not have the Mustang parts and the bike parts sprayed at the same time( & same color) and try to save a little money? I feel lilke a little kid at Christmas. So, here are a few teaser pics.

The paint color is Ford Sonic Blue. I had a local shop replicate the stock decals in metalic silver. I will post more when I get the panels back on. Let me know what you think.

Thanks Bryan

Tank teaser pic ...

You can't do that man ... that's really off-side :dry:

:worthlesswithoutpics:

JK ... looking forward to pics of the finished product :happy:

I know where it's going and I like it. That's a great color.

Very nice!!! Love the blue and the way they did the Honda decal. :fing02:

Very cool! I can't wait to see the final pics :beer:

Finally got the parts back on the bike. I would call it about 90% done. I blacked out the radiators while it was apart & now I really want to do the rest of the frame. Also added a micron exhaust(used, from a member here) and power commander. Anyway, tell me what you think.

Any feedback is welcome.

Looks like factory or better. Now for the really important info, what does a pro paint job cost? - with custom cut graphics? :fing02: :cheerleader:

That paint looks awesome. What would really set it off is some clear turn signals. They would go great with the silver. :beer:







P.S. sound bite required due to the Microns. :computer-noworky:

I'm an old Mustang guy too. I love the color on the Viffer...gorgeous bike!!!
