Custom Paint Job

Hey yall well i just got back from the Paint shop thats gunna be painting my frame and fork. I cant wait to bring them my frame/fork. we came up with a design thats going to look sweet. the front part of the bike is going to be painted to look just like carbon fiber(my bikes aluminum), theres going to be a red pin strip dividing the carbon fiber paint and the matte black which will be what the rest of the bike is painted. On the down tube will also be my last name(ALLSTOTT) in the same red paint that the pin strip is going to be. so what do yall think? oyea did i mention im getting the paint job for $150 haha getting the hook up.


yellow line represents the red pin stipe
red strip side will be the carbon fiber
grey strip side will be the matte black
And where it says fetish cycles will be where my last name will be
The fork will be half carbon fiber look / matte black

Oyea to give you an idea how good this guy paints he painted my car.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Sweet! Sounds like your bike is goin g to be equally sweet. Remember one thing, though.......really sweet bikes become targets of thieves, so make sure you have a good lock, too, and don't "free lock" it. Make sure it's locked to an immovable object.
