the word WEAPON is the first thing that comes to mind. i think its pretty intimidating. reminds me of the commanchee (sp?) bike built by orange county choppers. id like to see them side by side for a photo shoot. i like it alot but i think i'd opt for a chrome ring around the rim at least.

Thanks, I sold it a month or so ago, got tired of always cleaning black, I am now dealing with a much "user friendly" color.

Well anyways if you want to go even more black I still have my stock headlights they are pretty fogged up but im gonna take off the lenses and see if they come clean then paint them black it would look pretty sweet on your car and i'd sell them to ya for cheap. Ill send you pics as soon as I get new ones.
