Below is a pic of my 2011 Limited. Cherry red sunglo and merlot sunglo color combination. About ready to order a painted inner fairing from Zanotti's. Which color to go with, the cherry red or merlot? From the rider's view all you see is the cherry red so I was thinking go with it but I keep going back and fourth on it.
Cannot go with a two tone, so I have to choose one or the other. Help me out here. If you had to choose which would it be??
Cherry. I have seen some two-tone inner fairing on Limiteds that follow the batwing paint line. Very Very Very Very slick in my opinion. But you asked one color, so; Cherry.
My vote would be for the Merlot. (Have to be different you know!) I'm looking at your inner fairing being black (factory) right now and can picture it being painted the darker of your two colors. I think it would make the Cherry colors stand out that much more.
That's one of my winter projects. I am going to have it painted two-tone. If I had to pick 1 color it would have to be the cherry. I am having it painted because HD doesn't offer the spoiler brake light or the saddle bag lights in Cherry-Red Sunglo. I am going to have them all painted at the same time.............
