I've never done this before and would do it differently if I could start over- but I am happy with how they turned out so far as I had no idea of what I had planned would even work when I took the grinder to the first one!

They have plenty of imperfections but should look good from 5 feet away.

Already planned- I just haven't got enough beer in me yet to take the grinder to my cyl head!! Big Grin

Hey Josh I love what you've done with the bike and have been planning for some time now to do these exact mods to my 2014 black std.

Do you think it would be fairly easy to use the aircraft paint thinner on the side covers rather than using a dremel? Have you added chrome valve covers yet??
