Where the do people get this quality of a paint job done? The finish was honestly so clean in person. Not sure if it was a vinyl wrap or actual paint and I couldn't find the guy who owned it to ask him.

Personally love it. It's not even really about the colours because that might not be everyone's cup of tea, but the quality of the finish was uniform. Usually when I see people's custom paint jobs they're patchy.

I love a good paint job but would never have one done on a standard bike. Laughing

So, do you buy a crashed job and paint it up?

To guarantee a professional looking paint job you need to pay a professional company - somebody like https://www.dream-machine.co.uk - it'll cost you some pennies!

You might get lucky with a smaller company but the big ones got big for a reason!

Each to their own and all that, but ikkk! Sick
Hats of to skills and being able to do the job.
Just not for me.

It must be a nightmare to own, always worrying about a scratch and how the hell you would match/sort out any damage to the paintwork.

I remember loads of Nissan Micras having that sort of paint.

Not my cup of tea, honestly.

Would imagine it could be hard to sell when it comes to it!

It's a bit 90s TVR-esque.

Hah yeah TVR - forgot they had those pearlescent sort of colours.

Anyway, I like it - but I don't think the blue of the wheels and frame goes with it at all, so that would need changing. And I can only think black would work - but I dislike black wheels, so then I'm stumped.
