would be dope to lay some basic pin striping out, you can get stencils man, then lay your striping down. where it is black lay the green, green lay the black, and the white lay red... would give it a very cool effect for very little work!
just lay down the stencil, tape off the sections, and lay paint... done..

Joe: Is that mirror a right side mirror? When you flip the mirrors, they go on opposite sides, ya know? I'll send ya a PM.

I think it looks great! Wish I had a steady enough hand to do that. When I get the $$$ together, I want do my FB in OD green with aged looking USMC to replace the badges, and other accessories to flavor it up. Was also thinking of a denim finish (not sure which color) that would look good with the distressed leather seat. It sucks to be color blind!!! (dont laugh).

Yeah, I kind of wish I wish I went all OD green instead of the black and kept the white stripe. But whatever, I think it still looks damn good. I wish I would have spent more time wet sanding however... there are some ripples in the paint, but not very noticeable unless you are looking at it up close and looking for it.
I'll definitely be doing this paint job again, and this time, it will be done with no time limit in mind that way I don't rush myself.

Still say your scoot is dropped, your ride has a sick slope to it, she just flows smoothly.

I love out of the box thinking. Looks FANtastic. The pin stripe theme being discussed will really pull it all together. Great job!
By the way, it really isnt funny being color blind. My blue bike looks black to me in the sun.
But that's okay, I wanted a black bike to begin with, and until told differently what I thought I was buying...
