Color change ideas
 
1 Attachment(s)
Thinking about changing the color of the tins on my FXD. I have a painter buddy that owes me a favor so all I'll have to do is pay for the paint. I like Sedona Orange but I have another buddy with a Street Glide painted that color and don't want to look like twins running down the road. I like flat black (don't care for gloss black) but want something just a little different and not crazy. Ideas, besides a rainbow paint job that I know will be suggested? :icon_screwy: :D

I think the blue looks sick, but for something different I always liked flat white.

This would be my color of choice

I also like the blue, but if you really want to change it up Flat black always looks good but a pearl white would be pretty sweet also.

Not a big fan of white actually but good idea. dhook57, that silver is sweet.

I always liked the color I first switched to when I abandoned my stock Vivid Black tins ...

The color is called Platinum Bronze Metallic (color code A53) ... a BMW color ...

I had the tins redone in powdercoat and there wasn't a powder match, so I got a lighter color now ... a really close match to the current color is the VW color Moon Rock Grey ...

I liked the subtle hint of olive ... without looking like I was going for a military theme ...

I also like Joe Knapp's color of blue ...

Good luck picking a color ...

Consider driving around new car lots and looking at colors, if you find one you like the name of the color will be on the window sticker, and you can see what it actually looks like on a panel.

My bike's getting painted Ford Tuxedo Black this winter...

I think my bike is Dodge Patriot Blue ('06) code B5; anyhow, I've had two pieces added/repainted on the bike and a perfect match was easy...I second the automotive color choice.
