Do you reckon you can get some Amber plexy glass or an acid green cover for the lights? will really finish it off!

Obviously Amber would be best but acid green would look good! Go for it.

Great job, an amber light cover would really finish it off.

I didnt notice the black frame in these latest pics. Was too busy thinking "damn that looks sweet". Only when I saw some pics a few pages earlier without the tank on did I notice the frame. I think thats a good thing, isnt it ? Not sure a black frame works with all designs.

However, now I look at my bike and think... must try harder....

cheers yakama, i belive you have a set of these graphics dont you? i must admit this was a challenge to say the least , i dont think id be in any rush to do it again thats for sure , the wrapping being the biggest head fuck of all ,
@ jay , i decided to powder coat the frame as it was covered in little scratches and just bugged the crap out of me but after having it done i did think id made a mistake, but as soon as the bike started comming back together i knew id done the right thing and then the white am/pm scheme had to be done :peace:
some pics of the actual wrap going on
