Default Repaint Fatboy?

I had some damage to the bike and was looking to get it repainted by Harley. I saw a 09 Crossbones today in the showroom that was Blue Pearl with the Harley Davidson decal in script. I really like the scheme and I'm trying to get Harley to repaint my tins with that scheme. Anyone else have the factory put a different model paint/scheme on your ride? Any thoughts on that style on an 02 FB?

I had my bike painted by Attitude Custom Painting out of Fla. www.customflamepainting.com and am very satisfied with the result. I'm sure Scott and Jody will be happy to paint your bike any color and any design you like

I'm dying to get her back! I am having the factory repaint with Vivid Black and use a new Night Train tank badge, braid all of my lines and replace a few parts with the skull parts. This thing is going to be gorgeous when I get it back!

What happened to the blue pearl paint? I will say its going to look sweet with vivid black paint and braided lines. Be sure to post pics when you get it back.

I just never could get settled on the blue and I didn't want it to spend 12 weeks up at HD and come back with something I wasn't totally happy with. I know the Black would look sweet so i just went with that and the Night Train tank badge that has the skulls in it. It's going to look fantastic! I'll post up as soon as I get her back.

You can never go wrong with black. You know it is the fastest color. ;-)
