NICE! I did a bit a vynol work on my Road Glide as well. I got tiered of walking into a parking lot of 50 bikes that looked exactly like mine. I also hated the stock Harley Kinda red and punkin **** orange stock pin stripes, so I decided to cover em up. It is subtle but I like the look. Done with knifless tape and then I just used black 1/8 inch pinstriping to outline em and finish it off. I chuckle cause I see guys looking at my bike that have the same bike with this puzzeled look, as if they are thinking yea that is my same bike, but something is different, I just can not tell what.
I gotta learn how to resize picture-yes the stripes are just silver metalic vynol outline in regular 1/8 inch plack pinstripes. I think I have 50 bucks in the whole job

I almost threw in the towel a few times. It definitely tests your patience.



Heres some more shots, got the headlight nacelle, left battery cover, and belt guard done. That should do it. I had to do the headlight in multiple pieces. it just wasnt going to happen with one large piece..

I just got a roll of chrome. Yes I am going to try to do my front lowers. Have not wrapped my head around exactly how I am going to do it yet. (Pun intended) I will post some pics when and if I get it acomplished.

SleepingPanda looks awsome bro
