Yeah I do, but the seat is pretty faded. No cracks or tears, but it would still need to be recovered for a good look.

I also have that low profile seat from the second pic, the old tanks, and the front fender

If you are in the AL area I would hook a brother up!

Thanks bro I appreciate it!

The kit is from JK glow and it can be any of (I think) 7 different colors. I just run the purple because its different and the local LEOs seem to not mind as long as I am not running blue or red.

Man I would love some duals. I am setting up an EG right now though so price is definitely an issue. If you know where I could get a good steal...er deal I would jump all over it!
