Finally got my paint job done to match my helmet that I had done last year. Some of you may remember it.

I had my Spyder painted with a theme that would be close to the design on my helmet and here are the results. I gave Painter Dan my general idea of what I wanted and he took off with it and I must say he did an AWESOME job!! :bowdown: :2thumbs: Pictures really do not do this paint job any justice, it's a must see. There are so many little details hidden in the paint job.

Dan, thanks again for such a great job on my Spyder :firstplace: Whomever wins the grand prize from the passport run at Spyderfest would really be in for a treat. Only one thing that is bumming me out and that is that it is so darn cold out and I can't ride my Spyder to really enjoy the new look of it. Oh well, staring at it in the garage will have to do for now :roflblack:

:agree:Dan does good work!:2thumbs:

I looked at his portfolio one day while at CowTown and realized he did good work, but man after seeing what he did to my Spyder I realized he does awesome work! Pictures really do not do his artwork justice.

Thanks all and yes jimclarkf1, shows are in the plans :D

A superb job and I'm sure your very proud of Dan. He must have had hours and hours into it due to the details. Did he take any pictures thru the whole process? Make sure you allow him to display some of the:firstplace: trophies your going to be winning this summer.:congrats::clap:

Painter Dan, that is just an awesome job. It re enforces my desire to win the paint job in Cuba. The idea in my head is so clear and I have compete confidence in your ability to translate it to my spyder. Now I just have to win...:ohyea::2thumbs:

I should be the one thanking you Dan. I am just giving credit where credit is due and you Sir, deserve all of it and then some :clap:

For everyone that is attending Spyderfest, I can only commit to Wed. (pre-registration day) and Thu. but my Spyder will be there throughout the whole event displayed at Painter Dan's booth. I am sure he would love for everyone to check it out. I know I would if I churned out work like that! :D

Question:

What happens when you change helmets in a couple of years? Do you paint the helmet to then match the bike, or do you paint the bike to match a new helmet?

It's a PowerFlare http://powerflare.com

I got it before I made up my mind to paint the bike that's why it's yellow. Now I need to take it apart and paint the outer shell black :D

There is a lot of little stuff hidden in the paint job. The pictures really don't do it justice.:doorag:
