EXPY! just the guy i got the idea from!!! hahaha... man i dont sleep much... i work all day and then spend my nights in the shop... usually i will watch the sun rise catch a few hours sleep and head back to work... but last night the heater ran out of juice, and it got COLD fast! i still have to gloss black the peg supports tonight... ill snap a pic of it all together....
Grind... personally I think it would look awesome to have the silver boxs on your ride... i would black out the battery band to break it up, but never the less it would look awesome...
either that or you should see the new chrome powder i got... i have tried them all and this one is ALMOST spot on to chrome!

so i have been loving the color matched battery box and fuse box since i saw it on here a while back... i powdered mine gloss black a while ago... while i liked the look it was still not what i wanted... well i took a risk and ordered every color HD makes in powder... got black cherry as well... this stuff is a PAIN to work with, but after 4 attempts of shooting and blasting back down to metal again i finally figured out what it likes in the oven and for cooling... man this is an exact... i mean EXACT match to my bikes tins... looks like it has a heavy flake in the pics but it is subtle... ill toss them back on the bike tomorrow... ran out of juice for the night, also blasted down my passanger peg supports to shoot ultra black, no more wrinkle on this bike after this winter... Thanks tweakin, got me motivated to do some more work to my harley bud... finally was able to pull myself away from my cafe build... here are the pics... this should really clean up the lines on the bike making it smooooth and clean
Hey you didn't happen to get any Real Teal color did ya?
I'm planning on painting the elect cover when I paint the new front fender but that powder looks real good.

no man the place only makes 6 colors with more to come... i am sure there is an exact match in powder though... would bet the bank on it

Blaster... they are metal, powder coating take 20 min... to color match paint, it would take forever with prep, prime, mixing and adding flex/hardener, getting the temp in the room right to shoot... then clear and buff...
with powder i just blast, and powder... done... just took a bit to get used to this new powder
HOGRIDA, YOU KNOW THAT IS RIGHT!!!! for real with your metal fab and welding the SKY would be the limit brother!
