I can't say I have ever seen any steel flash rust like this before-right out of the heat dry cycle of dishwasher.

Forgive me for being "Stereotypical"

But-----

It has been my experience, 99% of the time Harley Davidson parts are "rush jobs"

I am not kidding.
Dude clled me Fridy 4:00PM asked"hey, how are you doing"?

Me " I'm getting around, trying to heal these broken ribs"

"oh yeah?. cool. Hey listen I have these exhaust tips and it's worth 50.00 if you can get them done by tomorrow morning so I can ride"

" Sure, no problem"
:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

So yeah, Pac Car Black is my go to satin black. 55% gloss

The Harley owners must have watched too much American Chopper :D
 






[MENTION=61294]vroomzoomboom[/MENTION] came over so I let him powdercoat his grill

The first blue we tried looked clown-shoe, but this blue works.

Pepsi blue, wrinkle black with top clear coat.
