Default Paint question?

Hey guys,

I have an 08 ultra. I'm thinking about finding a place where can have all the tins painted, air-brushing murals type. An anyone suggest a painter in cali or I can mail to?

I want a patriotic theme, with the Twin Towers in the shadow

Might be a ways to ship - but if you're willing to ship, this guy has done a lot of patriotic themes. He does great work and has painted car / truck / bike show winners Check out the photos on his facebook page.

Shoot me a PM. Let me know where you in Cali you live. I belong to a custom painting forums and know some of members that I met at an Airbrushing Workshop I attended.

Vivid Dragon runs sales all the time. If you call there speak to Shadd. He may be able to work a deal with you better than the shown price. My job was supposed to be close to 8k. I paid no where near that because of the sale he was running. Plus if you trade your stuff back into him you'll get more off the top. Nothing to loose but a phone call.

Thanks, ill do that. I have no issues with trading in the tins. I have no attachment to them... lol

All I’m really looking for is to paint the entire scoot Artic White all around; however, on the front of the batwing, I want an air brushed pic of a really life like looking eagle with a totally pissed off look on his face, flipping the bird with his eagle talon and under it in an upward arch say, "Jihad This!" Then in the background have a really light shadow have the twin towers. But I want the towers really light, so when someone gets close to look at the eagle they show. I don't want them popping off the fairing

My scoot is red now. I see red Scoots all over the place; I want mine to stand out a little...
