Looks great, love dem pin stripes. You should be happy when you have it all together and Ohio finally thaws out long enough to push the bike out into the driveway.

Looks GREAT....

How do those guys charge???? Is a job like that a lot of money?

(I hope you don't mind me asking.....just have not priced anything yet)

To be honest with you...I don't have a clue how they charge. A friend of mine did this for me for the cost of the 2 pints of One-shot! He said if he could keep the paint, I could have the stripes. When I dropped them off, he was just going to outline the gold scallops I did when I painted. He called me a day later and asked if I minded if he played with my tins a little more at no more cost...so what do you think I said?
I am absolutely stoked though!

Dang!...those look good.
Wish I had a friend like that...the one painter friend I had is gone now.

I would say that is a good deal.... and a good friend!

I had a friend of mine's cousin do some striping for me...... he would have done it for nothing..... but I slipped him 50..... (I still wonder what someone would charge)

It definitely adds to a paint job.....

I'll post some pictures when the bike is done!
