Default New paint! WIP almost done.

just thought i'd share what my new tins will look like when done. i decided that i no longer liked the lime green on my bike and instead went with black and blue with flakes with some striping. the blue is called "blue mood" by dupont hot hues. For those who are wondering "Trust" is my son's middle name and "Hope" is my daughter's middle name. I will definitely get more pics when it is complete and it'll look a thousand times better in the sun especially with the flakes.

Perhaps, instead of putting on the tank badges, why not have a decal made either the same or with a lil personal flare? Would look good and keep the sides of the tank smooth. Paint itself looks KILLER! Nice work!

Awww man that looks sweet.

Gives us denim luvers a sense of tear drops and denim black from the pic without the gloss coat. More ideas for next winter's modness.
