Default Final Paint on bags and covers. Happy Now!!

Got rid of the over purpled paint and this is what I ended up with. Cheap custom paint job under $200
1st pic is purpled out(TOO MUCH)
The rest of pics are current paint job. All done with House of Kolor auto paint Into a form of true fire flames.
Used all the common fire colors but added a touch of tangelo orange pearl to set of the colors to match or at least coincide with the yellow pearl on Bike.
These bags and side covers have gone thru at least 3 different paint jobs to get to where I was finally happy with them.
I had originally painted over some skull decals I got from purple harley decals but finally removed them and went with just flames.
The tangelo orange pearl real adds quit a touch to the scheme in the sun

This was the purpled(over purpled) bags and covers before. It was just to much over kill for me but I really had gotten carried away with that purple paint. Glad it is gone now
