I would have to assume you have access to CNC equipment, nice to see someone else making actual custom parts. You got skills, keep makin chips Brother.

First off Performance Machine does not make a breather faceplate that would match my wheels so guess what.....I made one to match. I think it turned out good.

JuJu has been on me for quite sometime to make her a rolled tag frame to go with her bike and bling bling, finally got it done.

Thanks brothers! It makes it worth the long hours.

Glad Juicy liked her frame too.

Wish I had more time like that but when it's pretty we have got to be riding. I have some bad *** floorboards coming up next. I am excited about getting them changed out too.

Question for ya'll......I am going to machine another one to send off to the chrome plater Monday and wondered if I should take the "TRACECAVE CUSTOMS" text off the middle. I usually don't put my mark on anything but a friend of mine suggested I start putting some kind of logo on my stuff.

For now I am going to ride with the polished aluminum one. I think it is shiny enough for now and looks better than just the mesh.
