New paint, black gold
It looked low to me to, but it's just the angle of the pictures. Don't get me wrong the fender is obviously lower than factory but it won't scrape there is enough clearance.....I think.... Hahaha 06cummins, the paint color is discontinued from house of kolor, they still sell it but they're not making it any longer so if your gonna pull the trigger ur gonna have to do it soon or the color won't be available.... Just for info! Thanks for positive feedback.

Oldschool, my bike was damaged trailering to sturgis. My buddies bike fell into mine and mine fell I to the side of the trailer. I know I know that's what I get for trailering, but I got a bad hip and can't ride that long and we were only there for 3 days so it is what it is.
I believe the paint is mixed with the pearl? As I have said in most if not all of my posts I'm no wrench and no very little about paint and how to do it, but I learned how to look at paint samples and I have no problem taking someone else's ideas and tweeting them a lil bit and making them my own.. It is what it is... Thanks for all the positive comments, I will post pics in the direct sunlight when the white stuff is gone, probably not for awhile supposed to get 5-8 more inches this weekend.

I was just looking back over the pics and I just realized that the first pics of the fairing and rear fender wasn't finished. Please tell me they weren't finished. Surely there's black Pearl sprayed over the gold. I've been sittin here wondering how they could look like shiny gold till they were installed and now they look black. I don't know jack about paint but I shoulda caught that.

I think the only damage I've ever had to any of my bikes was from trailering!
