My paint job before clear, cut, and buff

Should get her back next weekend, then reassembly.


These guys (www.kustomillusionspaint.com) are awesome. With shipping, this was less than $700 bucks!!

14 days from when I sent it off until the day it is supposed to be back.... Not bad at all. They give you real good email updates, too...

So what is the look process?  In other words, did you go to them knowing exactly what you wanted and told them, or did you have an idea and they helped you develop it?  I have a concept in my mind of what I want my bike to look like but don't have an exact description.  So I would need someone with enough artistic abilities to develop my ideas into an actual paint job. Wondering if this place with their low price would do that?

Absolutely!

I had a basic idea and told them. While mine was easy (orange with true flames) we still talked it through. Give them a call, ask for Adam. Tell him Mike Schaefer sent you.
