| Best bet would be to find a pinstriper where you live. They have photos of there work and more then likely can tell you what would look best.
They can tell you what colors would look best to.
Ask for a price and maybe check out two more what ever price they give you tell them what you can affords |

Belding Michigan | Check out a web site called http://www.signsandwondersbysue.com She is one of the best I have ever seen. I had a whole bike done up for CMA and It was great. The Bike is gone but the VV is next up. She may be in your area or close enough for a road trip it is worth the time. Archie |

Manchester, CT | Thanks Istayner....I like the way she accented the bike's lines. Looking at Sue's work she probably gets premium prices....which is well deserved...as I always like to say, you get what you pay for! |

Sue charged me $600. It took about 4 - 5 hours to do it.
She also painted my wife's black CR with lime green pin stripes and a Victory sign on the tank for $300. It made that bike pop. |

Just give Sue a call 319-750-0814. She is a super nice lady and if she happens to be driving by your area she may make a special stop. |

Delray Beach, FL United States | Check out www.twistedchrome.com . You pick from the " stock shapes " and then pick the color combo you want. Don't like it after a while, peel it off! |
