There must be a big difference between the l,xl shell and the s,m shell in the fulmer v2.I have a Med fulmer v2,A Orange mega flake non dot biltwell and sent back a Bell Custom 500 in the silver flake.Also had a Daytons 3/4 which I couldnt stand.The Fulmer was bigger than the biltwell.But it didnt seem that much bigger like the pic you posted what size Fulmer was that?

Yea thats very nice work also... I have to agree with you on Shawn at ImperialHouse 71 .... very clean looking artwork.

Just was wondering what is the pricing difference between DB & Shawn... I already know what Shawn charges... So is DB in the same ballpark?
