Finally got my bike all back together after my lowside at Jennings GP New Years eve.

I wanted to go with stockish graphics so this is what i ended up with.

Here is how it was.

I sprayed everything in my buddy's garage on Monday. Prep work sucks. I still have a bit of colorsanding to do to get the orange peel out but I just wanna ride the damn thing. I used Spicy Orange Mica and Midnight Blue Metallic (Both are stock '03 Mazda colors that I've always liked). Painting is a lot of work.

Looks good. Is the front fender still different, or is that just in the picture?

Paint was bought from the local jobber in the area. Ben's Paint in Longwood FL

The front fender is actually the same. I used the same color for the wings as was my last paint job. I also have another fender that is orange to see if I like that one better.

Looks fantastic man! You just putting the Honda wings on the tank and block letters at the bottom? Or leaving it clean?

the honda block letters at the bottm are a possible option, I aslo though about putting the cbr stickers on the nose again. But as for now, I think I'll leave it as is. It just looks so clean.

Looks real clean! Good work, did you mark out the wings on your own?
