If you have painted your bike, post a picture of it and the materials that you used. Thanks for help as I might be changing colors....

They are 1125 mirrors they work great with a little work.If you plan on doing them you will need to make a little more room in the front cover by the bolt holes for the wires to run dont worry you cant see it when the mirrors are mounted.You basically just cut out the space between the holes on the plastic.Also I didnt like how sturdy they where so I removed the rivet that holds the mirrors together by the mounting plate and replaced then with bolts and they stay put where you put them and they hardly shake/vibrate at all.

pics.......also one of how bright they are..

Fastxb12r are the pearl pics the same plastics as the blue ones or did you buy another a set of white plastics and pearl coat them?

The line up the tail actually isn't as off as it looks in the pic. I painted it all myself. Wheels and body. I am working on coming up with a new design. probably greena and silver, or green and white.
