Perfect - where'd you get them? There's a site that sells a Steal Your Face powder coated derby cover. When I get enough posts I can tell you where (requires a link, and heaven forbid new members should be able to post a link)

Now why would you want to put something like that on your bike?

JK, I think it looks good. I almost got one of those awhile back.

The close-ups bring it home!

I followed them around in the late 70's and saw close to 100 shows. From what I remember, I had a great time!
