So I took my headlight off to paint the bottom portion to match everything else. Well, while I had it apart I shortened my stock blinkers and put a new"super-white" headlight bulb in. A small but effective 3 piece front end mod that, to me makes a huge difference. Don't mind the crooked blinker, I adjusted it already. ;D. Let me know what you think!
Before mirrors, tinted/shortened signals,tinted windscreen and painted headlight...

I love my motorcycle. [bow_down]

Get a nice floor under her 8)
It looks good! Did you rattle can it?

How are the signals and windscreen tinted?
Much better.
What bulb is that? How is the output?
I used an ultra flat krylon spray for the headlight. It matches up perfectly with surrounding parts.
The windscreen is painted gloss black. The turns are tinted with VHT night shades.
The bulb is a cheapie "drag specialties" super white. For 12 bux the output is still better than stock. [laugh]
Makes a big difference! Well done!
The black on the headlight looks great! That is definatly on my list to do!
Nice job Dex. I have been thinking about painting my front "fairing" red with the white stripe. That was the motivation I needed. Did you use the Krylon for plastic? I am so going for the Ultra flat headlight ( :
I used the Krylon "camouflage" in ultra flat black. Turned out perfect!!
