Here are some paint progress pics. It's pretty hard to capture the lettering with an iphone since it's just gloss against the denim.

Welcome back. Your old '06 is one of my favorite FXDBI's of all time. Can't wait to see how this one turns out. Love the paint already.

Thanks guys. I want to keep the paint simple and different. I'm torn on whether I want to keep the lettering as is or add a gloss black circle to frame it or something else. I may put it on the bike and see how it looks.

Add a thin pinstrip outlining the letters, something suttle but defining!
