Default Paint change

Anybody have a Dyna with dark metallic silver or dark charcoal paint. My 2012 Fat Bob is Denim Black and thanks to a psycho soon to be ex wife I need to get a new year fender and have it painted. I'm a little tired of the Denim Black and I figure this is a good time for a color change. I don't have a front fender so getting the tank and rear fender painted wont cost too much. Hopefully anyway. Please show me what you got. I don't want gloss black but I'm thinking a dark silver or grey might look pretty good. Thanks!

Hey man! Pewter / dark silver is a good base. Works with oranges,maroons,reds,copper,even blues....And all your bits you get powdered will fall right in (black). Look at Crazy Colors Sunset and Tangalo.My orange is from "Hot Hues." Suede Blue Man has a gray scoot that has a nice "minimalist" all business look to it.He swears theres no purple in it. Easy peeeezy! Good luck!

Oh yeah, now you're talking, love the gray's! Like Nox said, I wish mine didn't have the pearl in it, just a deep medium gloss gray would be great.

Shades like medium dark "battleship" gray or a little darker than modeling clay are great, pull up picks of Porsche's in gloss grays, killer looking.

On my bike the tank and rear fender are stock "Charcoal Pearl" and I had the side covers. front fender, and fairing painted locally to match with PPG paint.

Here's a good example of gray and I like how it's monochrome (no chrome), like the headlight rings, door handles, sweet.

Get giggy with it

I'm looking at a similar colour change

I just posted this matte dark grey in another thread:


I also like the BMW 'Frozen Silver"

Liking that dark matte grey. I would like to go with that rocking the flying tigers nose art on the tank.

What do you guys normally pay to have fenders and tank paint?
