Unfortunately, the show fell on the same weekend that my wife and I were moving into our new house so I didnt have any time to work on cleaning up the bike.

My bike officially got accepted into the Garage Brewed Motorcycle show and Im pretty stoked. http://garagebrewed.com/

As mentioned, I was able to find another body shop with fair prices so I bit the bullet and showed them my mock up as posted above. He was able to fit me in between projects and I finally was able to pick everything back up a few weeks ago. Total paint job was <$500 including a tip. Colors: -...

Turns out, my aforementioned painter flaked out on me. After some deliberation, I found a new source for paint and did my full color/style mock up for the paint work. Shown below.

I then did the grips today using some leftover basketweave vinyl. I didnt care for how you could see the unfinished edges with the wrap technique I used earlier (not pictured). I used some brass snaps that match the eyelets in my seat. Im pretty pleased with how they turned out. Got my vinyl...

As previously mentioned, my inspiration behind this build was Singer Vehicle Design's "reimagination" of the Porsche 964, as shown below: Exterior of the Singer 911 Interior Now, I just went and picked up my reupholstered seat and I could not be happier. This interior was the main resource...
