Kinda. I'm looking to go more the route of West Coast Choppers "FedEx Guy" bike. Go to their website at westcoastchoppers.com click on Choppers and take a look at the FedEx Guy bike...i really dig that paint color and scheme. Or i may paint it like the General Lee from The Dukes Of Hazard with 01 on the side of the tank. Keep in mind that my N looks a bit different than stock too. Bars, 21" wheel, pipes etc. I think that it'll look good even though that pic you posted doesn't look to appealing. Did you use photoshop? Dude, could you seriously do me a solid and photoshop the FedEx Guy paint scheme onto my bike? That would be the shiz.

I've got 2 grand in my paint job.... and for the art work alone I thought it a pretty good deal...

I will admit it's a hard pill to swallow... but that's the way it is....

I painted for about 15 years.... putting on the paint is the easy part....

And while you have an amazing paint job in my book, it doesn't show in your signature. You need to ship me over some photos so I can do you up a proper siggy!!

I can certainly try.
