 Could someone make two photoshops for me? 1) Make the frame rail beneath the seat and the part front of the tail light the same dark grey as the frame and swingarm. As well as make the heal guard the same dark grey? 2) ALSO change all the gold (wheels and emblem) to the same dark grey. Thank you VERY much! (If you're REALLY bored, could you also make the two titanium colored bits on the front the same dark grey? One is right above the headlights behind the fairing, and the other is the front of the chin.) Thank you thank you! | ||

Someone's jealous I passed them on the back straight at Mid-Ohio and they couldn't keep up! | ||
| Jimduncan69 |

the grey with the gold wheels look good. I bet gloss black on the forks would look good too....rex | ||
| Buellfighter |
I like the silver bits grey but think the wheels would look sweet in a matte black finish? ...and the reflectors off the fork leg? | ||
| Mikef5000 |
Ok how about this: Repaint a VERY dark midnight blue (same color as my car). leave wheels Gold. Add matching gold offset Racing stripe to fender/fairing/airbox. I have to make sure I stay far enough away from maize and blue to not be confused. O-H! | ||
| Wolfridgerider |
i-o | ||
| Mikef5000 |
Hmmm, Keep the wheels gold... and tie gold into the paint scheme....  (those are supposed to look like the airbox covers from a top view.) Hmmmmm. | ||
| Ft_bstrd |
those are supposed to look like the airbox covers Yeah, that's it.  | ||

 Do this! Or hell, ship the tires here and ride the bike up with some paint. We can pimp your bike! Can paint the wheels at the same time your swapping the tires. Primed  Basecoat  Graphics before clear  For what it's worth, I like the green, but I would recommend a really deep, British racing green. I think it'd look badass with the gold. (I'm partial to the Solstice GCP in emerald green with gold BBS wheels...) The downfall to dark colors, as I'm sure you're aware of with the Audi, is that they show EVERYTHING. The orange I painted mine has been washed all of three times since April and you couldn't tell with the exception of the bugs stuck on it. The amber wheels really limit the color choices. Could do Viper blue with gold stripes... Getting an exact match will be hard with the way the wheels are done. Would need to do a silver basecoat and spray severely thinned orangeish yellow over it in a few coats. You could also use a REALLY heavy metal flake in the stripes...

You still have the gold wheels??? Post side shots? (or a link to more pictures!) | ||

You could also use a REALLY heavy metal flake in the stripes... I was actually thinking... and I'm a bit worried about saying it out loud....... gold leaf | ||

Never done the gold leaf before... couldn't be too hard. I'd be concerned about the clear adhering to the gold itself without anything to promote the adhesion. Clear does not like to stick to baremetals.  You could do the true, naked sportbike look.  A closeup of the paint. Keep in mind, this was before I polished it and it still looks like glass. I actually haven't polished it yet. It looks funny because it's reflecting the clouds  I've still got half a pint left and more than enough House of Color silver to make it happen | ||
