    Lookin' good Coastie

    I'm very happy I followed in your foot steps last year and wrapped my hood black. My hood ended up looking much different than yours since I used satin black opposed to gloss.

    Similar to you, I have some grey/black contrast with the hood & cladding. I recently purchased Showroom New in black so I can match the cladding color to the hood and have everything flow together. I'm just waiting for some time & warmer weather.

    Yeah mae, i checked ur pic's and ur lady looks supa great and clean. I really love the look u have going. I'm glad there is another Ironman out there with the hood painted. You are not Cool if ur hood is not black, lol. Though the VX pops out already, I think the black hood makes the VX pop out even more, giving it that extra edge. Now i need to get me some new rubbers, the lady been asking for them, Im tired of no grip and sliding to much. waka wka waka

    I really love the black hood on the Ironman white. While that color you got mixed up looks great Coastie, I think I personally like the satin black wrap VXroado did a little better. Either way, you both have great looking rigs.

    What happened to the yellow lens covers that are pictured in your sig?

    Yeah, i like the wrap around to, but i went with this color cuz my brother wanted to make up a sweet color for me, and i ended up really liking the end result. The yellow lights had to go, got pulled over and got my second ticket ever for just having yellow lights. After 4 years with them on, and living in 3 states, finally i crossed a cop that was to tired, and had a bad day to not let me go with a warning, but give me a fat $150+ ticket.

    Hey Chopper, I live in New Smyrna Beach, but moving to Burnsville, NC this coming January 2-3rd-ish. How many peeps are living in the central florida area, we should all meet up, and what not.

    Nice, we could design a decal to represent the "trio." Something small & unique (not like the giant ironman hood decal).

    ...but first JHarris has to get that hood painted
