Looks nice! I'd be interested to know what powder he used on the pipes that will withstand exhaust temps. Gotta love black wheels!

the powder will hold up just fine. as long as it is on the shields. we do it all the time. we use a specific powder for the pipes, i have had mine done on my bob for well over a year now and no issues. you do get a slight amount of dust flake as the pipes heat and cool, in reality that is the powder final curing... but that goes away after about 3 or 4 rides and jsut looks great after that! besides if anything goes wrong on them we will make it right. we stand behind all our work....

man... that does look sick as hell all together man! just insane! love the new look the bike has now..
