Default Did painted inner Fairing on Road Glide

I don't post that much but I thought this was pretty cool. i don't have much cash to dress up my bike so I came up with the bright idea of doing my inner fairing. I work for a body shop so the expensive part became very cheap and I got to have an adventure of tearing the bike down for 3 days and using the wifes car. She was "thrilled". Here are some pics. Let me know what you think. The nallace switches were the biggest b**ch of the whole thing I think other than being without my bike while I waited for my painter to paint the parts.

Very Nice Job There .. Doing the Inner Fairing enhances the look on any of the Glides... Good Time to swap the Useless Air Temp Gauge for an Oil Temp Gauge as well ...

Really nice!!!
As said having the inner painted makes the bike look much sharper IMHO. This is a winter mod for this winter I will be doing.

Good job on the inner. I'm thinking it will be a gr8 winter mod to get me through the non-riding season. My bike's vivid black so time to think about color options. Really makes your RG look sharper!

Looks great, nice pictures.

Amazing how customized the bike looks after the inner fairing is painted.
