Default Painting my 99 FXST

I'm starting to look at options for paint on my 99 Softail and I'm leaning pretty hard toward the same paint scheme and colors as Charlie Sheen's bike in "Beyond The Law"... Any thoughts, comments?!?

Pick a paint scheme that makes you happy. What you think of your bike is the only thing that counts.

Beauty and Paint schemes are in the Eye of the Beholder. Make it what you love, you will never please enough people to make you like it.

Choosing paint is one of the most difficult things in the World! I would encourage you to decide a scheme of your own. If you Google your surname you'll find you can call on at least 40 shades of green!

That scheme was very popular in the 90's when the movie came out in fact its a standard template in most bike paint shops honda even ripped it off.....paint is a personal decision do what you like and you will never be dissappointed who cares what other people think anyway.

I personally like that paint. It should be simple for most good shops so it won't be as expensive as all the elborate stuff that is out there.

I agree with a few of these other guy's... Your paint should be what you want and what your definition of cool should be.


" Can't please everyone, so you've........ got to please yourself."
Not trying to Hi-jack the thread, but, Does anyone remember that song and who performed it?
Sorry o.p.
