the Iron's mag wheels for candy copper laced wheels.

Gotcha!


























What I used:





After the rear tire wears out I'm gonna put an 18" wheel in with a slim 130 tire.

Looks good. IMO I wouldve done the spokes black but that's me. An 18" would look killer out back though

Very nice - copper & black work well together. Keep up the good work w/those Iron UG's!

Very nice!!
I like the look of copper also.
I'm compiling ideas to add copper and brass to mine.
I've redone my shifter with 50BMG brass and I'm working on ideas for 20mm highway pegs and 40mm driving lights.
Explain your headlight mount if you don't mind. Do you have step by step for it??
I'm looking at replacing mine with an old tractor light and I'm searching for ideas on how to mount it low like yours.
