How many hours do you think it took you to do the panels and wheels in total?

Are you putting the decals on with the fairings on the bike? I'd have thought it'd be easier to do it with them off and on some bench or something.

Looks like a great job so far

Really nice job on these

I actually really like the colours too, I expect they weren't cheap!

Think the decals will be needed to finish it off, especially on the pink / black fade (maybe my least favourite bit but obviously not a criticsm of your work) but really should look awesome when finished

If you're fitting decals I'd welcome any tips as it's something I need to do soon and only have one shot at getting it right!

price of paint all on specialist paints website,decals will finish the bike of ,they will be put on when bike is all together,The trick when putting decals on is. You need a trigger squirty bottle ,fill it with water and a teardrop of washing up liquid.Squirt the panel and the back of the sticky decal.This way you place the decal on ,and you can move it around the panel,once in place squeeze the water out using a spreader card or bank card whatever is at hand.This way you will get no bubbles.You will find you need to get every drop out ,when lifting the front bit of paper of the decal may want to still come of with the paper,in that case re squeeze until satisfied.get a hairdryer to quicken up the process.PEEL slowly ,NEVER use a heat gun this can in some cases allso soften the paint and come of with decall.Best practise with a cheep decal on a panel first .even with hair dryer only warm the panel

Looks good, get pics up when its all back together, your work looks top notch

[woodyeee]

I need a simple paint job doing what area are you in roughly.

[Ste]

Needs more yellow!!

Other than that, the paint job you've done is of very impressive quality.

The thread is not spam but I can already see a queue of BCF people forming who're shouting about "shut up and take my money!" so I think you've got some potential customers which would get you closer to that bike per week.

[anthony_r6]

Colour scheme isn't to my taste, but as everyone else has said, your work has been top notch.
