your right, getting rid of honda takes your eyes completely off the lowers and it is unfinished.

make templates out of them, then order some high quality carbon fiber vinyl (i can get you a site i order mine from) and use the templates to cut out new carbon vinyl tank/upper decals

then have your rearsets pcd black, and invest in some cf heel guards

OR

for the heel rearsets get them pcd gold, or get gold aftermarket ones, with gold adj. levers for a nice POP on the bike

tape off and paint your stator and engine cover satin black

re wrap your pass seat and remove the strap wrap is silver so it looks like a seat cowl but is functional as a seat

get a cf windscreen, heat shield, and hugger like that guy has they are schweet

just some small stuff i can think of...

oh and get some audis done by that __Z__ guy
no pink? Z, you disappoint me.

Just let people know that you're officially endorsed by NateDiesel.

That should propel you to victory easy enough.
