So my bike is finally custom painted and being wet-sanded today. At times I was so indecisive about how to use the graphics (swiped off my collection of Affliction t-shirts), one idea leading into the next and before you know it, you're doing something totally different than what you started with. My thanks to Johnny Vegas at High Speed Customs for his great ideas. So she'll be built back up by the weekend but I'll be out of town and won't be able to pick her up until the week of the 24th. In the meantime, here's a teaser of the rear Low and Mean fender. I'll post full pics when she's back home!

I love it! Is that "marblized" paint on the graphics? Or silver leaf. Hard to tell in the pic. I got some to use on mine but never used it.

It is strictly airbrushed using a small square paper stencil over a small portion at a time to give it kind of an 'overspray' look. It was originally going to be, and WAS finished, in white only. We added the blue spontaneously. By the way, FANTASTIC job on yours, very 'hot'!

Nice. The blue sets it off a bit and adds dimension. Almost looks like mother of pearl. Can't wait to see the rest of it. Did you do the paint?
