Default Daytona Blue Pearl, it can be done.

After a very long wait I finally got around to buying extended bags and fender. Originally I was going to get the G2 fender from True Kustom, but didn't get a good feeling from them so I went with the Bad Dad Summit fender with flush lights and Top Shop bags and Bad Dad speaker lids. Anyone with DBP paint might know what a pain it is to match, however they came out pretty good I think.

Looks very, very close. I have Black Quartz, which is another paint code HD has not released yet. Still waiting so I too can paint some stuff.

Looks awesome, congrats.

Man that looks really nice. I like the bar & shield on the fender also.

Enjoy

Thanks everyone! I'm happy as hell it's finally done.

Lesson learned, buy a black bike and repaint everything with a non-HD special color. Even HD isn't able to get it perfect, I bought lowers and one of the caps is slightly off as well. But, overall I'm happy with it. Good luck getting the codes for your paint, it's a real pain. Try contacting your local PPG rep, or try this place as they do work for HD; http://www.cpvehicles.com/

Just a hair shy of 7 inches when it's on the stand. Stock suspension.

PPG makes Black Quartz 940144. Might want to look into getting in contact with a local PPG jobber.

Looks good, but the pinstripe doesn't appear to match quite as good. Maybe it's the sunlight hitting it though.

Yea I agree, my speaker lids from HD never quite matched the rest of the bike either. Seemed tough to get right.
