was thinking red, copper and black, but green, copper and black would look sick too! been digging on the cool varigated copper leaf (all engine lines will be polished copper) they have now. trying to figure out a way to incorporate it on the tank and fender.

thanks for the compliments guys.

found this site that has some pretty sick paints. check out the chrome paint (looks pretty believeble!) and the molten copper. molten lava is growing on me and would fit the bike pretty good.
the chrome would be killer for speaker boxes and other interior parts. check it out-

did 5-6 different spray outs on this thing now. gone through about $200 in paint tests and i already had 90% of the different paints i have used! only thing that really looks the best is the color i used for my car, then black and silver leaf details. will post a couple pics soon.
for some reason the color looks alot more vibrant on the bike than the Z, but i used a black base instead of light gray on the Z, and the pearls are popping a little more with the black.
