I'd make the bottom parallel to the shock, round the corners to about a half inch radius.

 

looks great!!

 

That's exactly what my dad said. Right after he said it was to long and looked like ****. I can always trim it up, and probably will. I got the scallops taped off and since these pics I have laid down a couple of coats of Red Metallic. You can't see in the pics but there is fine silver tape out lining the scallops under the green tape.

 

Well, It's got three coats of Red Metallic. I will let it cure overnight, give it a good once over tomorrow and lay down three or four or maybe more coats of clear. It might lay down some pinstripes to give the colors a nice contrast.

 

Very nice work. It is looking like it will be one beautiful paint job.

Would love to have your knowledge. Looking forward to the final pics and product.

ghost, that's off the chains man.

i love the color combo.

i actually just started kickin around ideas with my paint guy for a huge gold metalflake with jet black scallops job on my bike.

lookin at the winter of 2011 for that, though.

 

Looks good but I've got a question for you.
How hard is it going to be to get the wheel out when you need a new tire? I would probably cut some of it off.

 

To change the wheel I will either have to remove the fender or borrow my buddies bike lift or buy my own which is one of these and it works very well. http://www.harborfreight.com/high-po...ift-99887.html

 

That's gonna look good, will be waiting to see final assembly pics. Nice work!

 

damn you got some mad skillz!!!!!! looks great your bike is coming together nicely.....
