Looks really good Lou! I still think Mercury Metallic shows the body lines of the F the best of any color

Nope, I didn't luck out. This car came with the Bridgestones and chrome wheels. I wanted neither. Before I signed the big paper, I told them Michelins and regular F wheels or no sale. An Obsidian F had Michelins, so they switched wheels.

Thanks, I agree with you. If you look really hard, you can see the pin stripes, which, IMHO, make it look even better. You can really see the dip from rear to front.

^^^^The pin striping I had done myself. There is an excellent stripper in Tucson, he did my Harley Tank a few years ago, fantastic job. Though I no longer ride, I've stayed in touch. All the body shops in town use him.

For now it stays the way it is. (No Drop - EVER)

Modified Exhaust to real Duals with no secondary cats.
Pin Stripe
Tinted Windows
K&N Drop-In air filter

I'll probably add a Joe Z intake when it comes out.

I'd love to find a good STB for this car

I have tint film for the tail lights, but I'm not sure yet, weather I'll install them or not.
