he actually has a guy in his shop that he hired to strictly do hand striping and things of that nature...so it will be done by hand and not stenciled on

ok, i see. thats what the stealer said.... according to them, they would have to hire a pin striper to match the flames since they can't get the stencil flames from HD.

it still makes no sense to me.

cant wait to see what your fender is going to look like once it's finished.

Alain, I think that you will be better off getting your own custom paint job . It will look much better than stock since it's a custom fender. By the way, thanks Alain for the info about Jerry, I actually tried to contact the guy and get an estimate. They want around 1G for just cutting my fender and I have to get the paint job done myself. In this case, You are lucked out, buddy.
