My F3 is *OFFICIALLY* Done! Pictures inside!

So I just got done washing/waxing/cleaning chain and grabbed the camera. Sorry about the driveway shots, I don't have beautiful scenery to use as a background like Juliet. Stupid Illinois.....
I painted it black, used the original decal style with chrome and red colors. Moved the front "F3" because honestly I didn't feel like cutting it into 3 pieces and trying to get it to fit properly. Everything has 7 coats of clear. The decals are buried under 3 of those.
Ebay windscreen, bar ends (yes they say "RR". I ordered "CBR" ones and they sent those. Oh well.), grips, and front and rear signals.
I did ALOT of fiberglass work on it. The left "ear" was missing, lots of cracks, missing chunks, holes, etc.
The can is a Two brothers, it was apparently layed down with the bike, as it was scratched up. I did a little paint design on the can with some black BBQ grill paint to cover up the scratched areas, and painted the rest of the exhaust system solid black.
Its a 96 bike, and early this spring I installed a 98 engine (my old one had a cracked case.)
New RK Chain/sprockets, stock gearing. Michelin Pilot Powers.
That's all i can think of right now. Do you guys think I have a chance at the CBR of the month? Kinda tired of seeing RRs win every month, though they are awesome...
