: WOW...painted my windscreen... talladegaswampmonster 03-26-2006, 09:52 AM ...and it looks AMAZING. I love it. I know, i know, some say it will fade in a few months.. Well, if it does, that is a good excuse to buy an aftermarket one! I took my time and it came out great. I used nearly a whole can of spraypaint, but i think i got more on the newspaper around the screen than the screen itself. let me know what ya think talladegaswampmonster 03-26-2006, 09:53 AM BTW...sorry for the crappy pics.....they are from my cell phone Headshok50 03-26-2006, 09:54 AM looks good, now just get rid of those mickey mouse ears for rear view mirrors and itll be tight talladegaswampmonster 03-26-2006, 09:57 AM whats the blue thing you got covering the trip? umm...not sure i see what your talking about 04areSix 03-26-2006, 11:31 AM Very nice. I've had mine sprayed for 2 years now with no sign of fading. talladegaswampmonster 03-26-2006, 12:09 PM thats great to hear i was a lil worried about it fading, but i can always buy an aftermarket one if it does imbobdole 03-26-2006, 12:14 PM i like it.. i'm gona do mine soon too, just gotta find somewhere to do it(living in an apartment sucks) xrrr6x 03-26-2006, 03:02 PM looks good i just put a smoked one on my bike and i like the look alot n2bikes 03-26-2006, 03:03 PM I know $70 is a good chunk of change to blow on plastic but my Puig Dark smoke looks just as good and you can still see through it. I just figured my time and effort vs buying a aftermarket one. Plus I sold my stock one for $35.00 so it didn't cost that much after all. But anyways yours looks good and you did it yourself so props :cheers http://www.r6messagenet.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=24127&d=1142713465 TapoutR6 03-26-2006, 03:35 PM I painted mine on my '01 R6 and loved the way it came out. I rarely tucked in behind it completely anyways. Also imo, looks-wise I think the regular windscreen looks better than db, but db has more functionality obviously. Nobody even noticed I had painted it unless I told them. Soundguy77 03-26-2006, 03:48 PM Looks good. I did my 03 and it doesn't fade at all. My 06 wind shield is drying as I type :) The aftermarket ones don't look as nice (dbl bbl look is dated) and who looks through their windshield anyways? Plus it looks better at night since it keeps the ambient light out of the cockpit my 03 http://h1.ripway.com/soundguy77/2003.jpg my 06 w/shield http://h1.ripway.com/soundguy77/DSC06954.JPG 04areSix 03-26-2006, 04:54 PM lol @ dbl bbl look being dated. it's not for looks, it's for forcing the air up and over the rider. TapoutR6 03-26-2006, 05:05 PM lol: "But db has more functionality Obviously!" lovmyR6 03-28-2006, 10:04 AM i painted mine over the winter and i love it. it make it look more aggressive for some reason Soundguy77 03-29-2006, 07:50 PM lol @ dbl bbl look being dated. it's not for looks, it's for forcing the air up and over the rider. I fully grasp the functionality of it.... all I'm saying is that it looks like shit. | ||
