If I found the right decals I would think about taking off my current stock badges, haven't found anything I really care for as of yet.

Ditto. Was even thinking about a flat/faded red in the same script as my badges.

I def agree, and would love to see this done. Personally I have the denim black SB and would do a mix of deep deep flat blue and black.

That's what I was thinking, but I'd really like to have it airbrushed along with my avatar on the tank. But from everything I've seen you can't airbrush over the Harley denim paint.

First let me say I know absolutely nothing about painting anything. I leave that to folks that have the talent for it. My question is: why can't you paint over the denim black paint. I'm just asking because I don't know.
