Nice Paint Job!

Paint costs???

I'd guess $150.00 for paint including clear and case of beer to cover labor okay 2 cases

Well The pic doesn't show the candy in it. It's Viper Orange with candy coating. Also there was some minor body work done. All said and done 500.00. And the emblems that are backwards which he is fixing this winter free of charge are under the clear coat to look factory.

It looks sweet!, I like the color.

I have a little bad news though, the Honda wings on the tank are on the wrong side(backwards)....

Did you polish the frame yourself? Do you have any tips or tricks? I like the polished look but it takes alot of effort to get it to that point. I am repainting and thoroughly cleaning my Superhawk in my spare time.
