new paint on my Rocker

Got the bike back from the Painters on Thursday of last week. It has been raining so I haven't been able to get any pics out in the Sun. I changed the color from Maroon with Gold Leaf flames to Big Blue Pearl with Gold Leaf. I also got rid of my "harley davidson" lettering.

It cost the guys insurance about 3500 smackaroos... Not to mention the original $1000 they had to pay for the redo because it looked like crap.

The maroon outside pic is from about a year ago before the accident. The Blue is what I just did to it. I figured starting from scratch was a good thing. I got the same painter to do the goldleaf and the blue. I am hoping I am the only guy with Big Blue Pearl on a Rocker-C with Goldleaf flames. haha

I had the painter add another flame on each side of the tank to cover the Harley Davidson lettering. I had to get new Goldleaf for the whole bike since the 2009 goldleaf didn't match the 2012 stuff. I had to wait a while for that stuff to come in from California.
