Thanks for all the positive comments bro's. Yes Lowman the fenders are in the process of being done in the same pattern. The way things are going we should be putting it all back together one week from today. Wish me luck!

I live in the Aiken Augusta area , thinking about doing something to my Fatboy. Who is doing your work, or are you doing it and taking any new work?

Redneck cool to hear from a local. My buddy & I are doing it ourselves. He has a painting background as you can see and is very talented. He has a shop in the back of his house and we are using his bike and mine as a source of advertisement to drum up more work. We both feed off each other for ideas & I think we make a good team. I think I have a good vision on what I want (and so does he) and he has the talent to make it happen.

Red -

Keep your head down over there and come home safe. This Marine will keep you and your fellow service members in his thoughts.
