Hi Livi1215, I found out how to post pictures...........so here's a quick couple of shots of my new paint - not fitted yet!!!

ORIGINAL: Ianltd

Hi Livi1215,
Saw your post and thought I'd add my bit!!
I have recently bought a paint set for my W.G from a guy in New Madison OH. called Smitty over eBay - I live in the U.K.
The job is amazing and so is the price.......I bought full tins in a custom ghost flame pattern (similar to PowerCobra98's) with candy red marbleize and gold dust added, - it's awesome!!
The whole lot was $995.00 and S & H to the U.K was a very reasonable $150.00 with no trade-in.....got it in a week!
He will also do one-off's or pretty much anything you want.

I don't know how to post links, but if you are interested and someone here tells me how to post a link, I will do my best to find him for you!!
Hope this is of some use,
Kind regards,
Ian

Hi Critter174,
I dropped a post in 'General Harley-Davidson Chat' in reply to Dynadude about painting Anniversary tins and said I've decided to keep my originals.......you never know what can happen in the future do you!!
Sorry about that, but there is an unmarked complete set of tins on eBay motors in our Gunmetal Pearl, with badges!
If you type in 'Harley-Davidson Paint Sets, it's newly listed and I think it has one bid for $450.00 at the moment, I have seen it tonight.

Hope this is of some use to you.
Kind regards,
Ian

trust me i know had my brother -in-law helping me unload mine from my truck one day and he released the clamps before i got up on the bike and it feel in the back of the truck and now i have a nasty looking dent right around the fill cap. I'll go see if i can find it. and as far as posting links it's real easy to do just go to the site you want to copy then look up at the top of your screen and where it says address put your pointer on the address you see and right click and you will see where it says copy then when you get to where you want to paste it just right click then hit paste in the post and you will have your link. and really like your taste in bike.

Street great paint job very classy.My painter did not do anything I told him to do and kind of went crazy. I guess I gave him too much artistic freedom. I like it but it is not what I had originally in mind. But it took him only a week and was only $400 bucks since he is old friend.

KlrBob,SWEET paint job great colors. Can't believe he did that for $400, I can't let me wife see what you paid or I'll be hearing it forever. I almost wish I would have left the paint alone, it makes me way to nervous to ride it now.

What?!?! With a name like yours (Killer) Bob, and he didn't do as you wanted, does he have a death wish?
But seriously, very nice lookin' paint you have there. A good friend indeed.
