Someone posted this link awhile back, I saved it because I want one done but haven't contacted them yet.

I'm sorry for you loss and hope these guys help you honor your brother.

When you get one done post a pic of it on the bike for us.

There ya go... Talk to them, it's less expensive then engraving, and looks better, IMO.

Back on topic, etchingsbypig did mine, they do nice work. Their site has a lot of examples. Mine is on there the Royal flush to match my tat. If you can go black with the cover it stands out better.

Great. Post pictures or what Idea you have in mind.

Im thinking of doing the POW/MIA one. You dont use your stock covers which is great incase you ever sell bike etc you have your stock cover laying around.

I agree. I had something painted on my tins on my last bike and I lost it when I traded it in. I thought a Derby cover I could swap at least.
