and the heat fix project begins

[cuznjohn]

this is a lil tedious for a man built like a bull in a china shop but there is a very good reason they say MOUNT FIRST in case you drill through them so they can be patched b4 painting. you can see a few spots where i drilled through.

Looking good

I bet those would look sharp painted black

:agree: with http://www.plastidip.com/home_solutions/Plasti_Dip

black

i ordered the yellow paint for them. the grills will be sprayed black but i also have the upper vents that i have to work on to mount them. i am going to take my time doing this so i can get them all painted in one shot, but bob d was the first to say he thought they would look good in black when i first ordered them, now you have me thinking lol

John,
Not to be too pushy :shocked:; how long do you think it'll take to button things up for a test ride? :dontknow:

 

[cuznjohn]

not sure

John,
Not to be too pushy :shocked:; how long do you think it'll take to button things up for a test ride? :dontknow:

i have a couple of more pieces to do on these and than i need to take the top parts off the bike so i can do the top vents, so tomorrow is going to be a nice day and i might ride with friends so i don't want to take the rest of the bike apart than put it back together just to ride. so i am taking my time
