    I spoke with the guys from wideopen custom last year at Sturgis. They are supposed to be working on a fairing for a wide glide this year. As soon as they have one I will order it for my bike. I am very interested in what you think of the quality and the ease of installation. Looking forward yo jearing about the project...............Bob

    I think it looks pretty darn good! I think you did a better job on my medical caduse and snakes....and the plane on the tank, but that may be that I am just a bit predice in my own favor..... ;-)

    LOOKS GREAT! Did you put a water drop effect on the blue or is that my Internet eyes failing me,Could just be the reflection of the flash. That eagle looks great and yes you nailed the dual flag very nice:cool:
