I like the powder coated bars. Any chance you'll powdercoat or paint the fender supports to match?

Lookin good. Kurykyan sells smoked led turn signals that would go with. I swapped the stock for mini bullets on my 01 vol project and i like the look. Plan on running any leds on the body? Whatre you gonna paint the rims with? One of the last things i have planned is plastic dipping the oem rims either black or white and puttin on extra wide white walls. How much chrome ya planning to keep on?

If you find some used chrome pipes get some VHT ceramic header paint (black satin looks great on my pipes). Paint them with that and then hit them with a heat gun to bake. The paint is soft until baked.

You can ceramic coat the pipes and with them apart...put them in your oven to bake.

I covered the holes with a new light and plate as for the bottom holes im getting led lights that will fit and making them brake / blinker light , ive added the pass seat and lost the nice big fender look so ive added a sissy bar its about 32" looks awesome in person , i also did the passing lights so now it has the triple head light look and its awesome
