Default King Tour-Pak at the painter gettting a face lift

I took the King Tour-Pak I bought to Color Works in the Dallas Texas area this morning. It will be getting a new Vivid Black paint job, chrome latches, chrome hinges, tail light assembly, lower side marker light lenses, liner and H-D Deluxe rack for the lid.

OK Dane.... I'm a mind reader but it doesn't work well over the net!!! So fill us in on why we should know this????
And if they are doing all this for you why don't you take your lowers in to be touched up??I would think since they are spraying your T.P. they could get a little overspray on them?

I have been excided about turning my RKC into a full dresser. I already had the hard bags. Mounted the fairing lowers a few days ago and got the paint scratched as you mentioned. The caps from the lowers are also at the same painter to be touched up.

Since you mentioned it, I called and they are going to color match the light bar with no extra charge. The tour-pak is also getting new chrome hinges and new set of latches as well. It going to take 2-1/2 to 3 weeks.
