thanks for all the positive comments. the cowls below the seat and the black pieces under the tank are going to be resprayed gloss black. the pieces under the seat dont match and the painter told me it was because of the finish on the plastic, so he is going to redo them in black for me. i also wish that the wheels matched the paint better, i talked to another powdercoating shop and they said they have a much closer match than the white that i have now, so im considering getting them redone in a couple of weeks. as far as the stickers go, i already have a set of the stock graphics in 'black chrome', the same finish as the windscreen. im just waiting for the bike to get buffed on monday before i put them on.
