Ted Schoonard from Sorento, FL did the paint. He does lots of jobs for all of the surrounding Harley shops and I HIGHLY recommend him. He goes by "Ted the Painter". If you want contact info, send me a PM.

When they were red, the paint started to bubble up at the seam between the fiberglass and the ABS plastic (one of the reasons I had for the bike repaint). Luckily, the painter of the blue scheme (Ted the Painter) knew how to fix it and redid the fiberglass and I trimmed it again. It was a lot of work, and I couldn’t have gotten it done without my guys helping me. But in the end, it was just what I wanted. So totally worth it, lol. Thanks for noticing!
Great job dude! It looks like it SHOULD look! Nicer than some of the stretched tanks I have seen.
I always hated that space there, and have thought about modifying the mid frame deflectors, but your solution is 'da bomb'!!
