Default Custom primary cover

So i saw a bunch of people putting out custsom things online.
So i searched around and found someone to put together a derby cover that i really liked.

Triple Stack


Up Close Cib


Up Close Airborne


Up Close Air Assault


To be honest other derby covers were 100-200 on jp and denn Kirk. . I paid 175 for this. But the detail it took was more than a lot i've seen. I actuallly spray painted my 103 stock cover. What is funny was i didn't expect much when i ordered it. Kind of like the gimmicks you buy off tv. But damn i was hella surprised and cant wait to put it on my bike

This forum has been beyond superb for connecting me with great enthusiasts.
Unfortunately, my sled is in pieces waiting for powder coat and parts.

Thats very sweet. Were you given the option of designing it yourself? I am looking for some one to do a one off club design, but every one wants a crazy "one time" set up fee that they can "stuff up" their a$$. But for $175, I would certainly be interested, based on the quality of yours.

You can email me ... Eli.kim00@gmail.com
But no... i sent the person 3 different pictures... literally pictures that made no sense just random pictures. He worked with me and made it right. never charged me until he really had to put in time to make it work.

And honestly im not one to put my money out there (especially the anti 2nd amendment paypal) but for this one i did.

Hit up mark (story808). He's done a ton of covers for the train guys, and he'll make ya whatever you want. You send him the art or give him some ideas and he will take care of ya! You can check out some of his work in the train pic thread, or there was a thread at one point showcasing some of his stuff.
