UPDATE

got the tank back from paint today! stoked it came out great, looks brand new!

i should have the rest of the fairings back this week, everything will be the oem candy red color except the mid fairings. they are going to be midnight candy pearl. its a metallic black with candy red pearl in it. should look pretty sick when its done. will look like a metallic black until the light catches it just right.

heres how the tank came out!

Man that should be a good looking bike. Keep it up cause I have the same year and color so your giving me ideas and this will be a way to see it.

Those mids look so awesome. I was just thinking about doing something like that but with ghost semi-tribal design in the mids.
