Posts: 377 O'Neill, Nebraska | Looks great. I've got a Cherry Red Vision and would think a 'wrap' with the Rolling Stones tongue as a theme would look preeettttyyy cool.
Do you do this for a living? If so you might have a customer.
PS. Where in Hampton do you live? We lived in the Wythe section of Hampton for many years before moving to San Antonio.
Cheers!

Some flames would look cool and of course trying to match the 'reds' and 'blacks' so that they blend in better with the Cherry Red would be nice.
Back to Hampton....when we lived there we kept our boat at 'Dandy Haven Marina' that is up the road from you. Sure brings back good memories. I must say that having a Vision is MUCH less costly than having a boat. Lol.

Posts: 639 Tri Cities, WA | Very cool. I just swapped my stock aluminum looking one for a Arlen Ness black bezel/dash with two add on holes. I have to say yours does look awesome bro. I just wonder how the colors (mainly blue & red)will hold up under the sun over time? Now I have a spare one (DASH) I can use for something like this. I would like to have one done too. I have an art idea that I would like to try so if you do make more wraps and want some business please e-mail me. custombikerstuff@gmail.com
Again awesome brother. |

Posts: 8144 New Bohemia, VA | ...'cause every girl's crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man and bike! You've got a great looking bike. The best part of is that if you every want to swap out on the console, it can easily be done. You've got to ditch the inspection sticker though. I put mine up into the fairing on a plate next to the right fork. You have to stand back from the bike on the left side and look in, but it seems to work. |

| shawn ben trying to contact you about console
I was thinking at the top of the cover a dragons head with it breathing fire down to the bottom with a black background, would you have any problems with that? I liked the way you did the flames on yours. I can pull my cover tonight and send it out Sat . What would the turn around time be ? i don't mind paying for overnight shipping.

Posts: 231 Hampton Va | It is not to hard to apply ...but there is a bit of a trick to it... you need to apply heat to the decal and stretch it on...it would be best to send it to me but you can also do it. The holes are cut in after it is applied. And there is no differance in maintance then if it were painted. these are printed then laminated with a uv protectant. |

How would one look with just Flames on Black without the skulls or dragons.
Instead of flames. How about Grinding or Cutting Sparks on Black.
That plus the bikes name.... like "Sparks"

I received my Rolling Stones decorated console from Shawn and it is incredible. Thanks again Shawn I appreciate the time and effort you put into designing and applying this.
Sign up guys....this is definitely worth the time of shipping your console to Shawn for him to apply the graphics!

Posts: 404 San Antonio, TX United States | Just as a side note. I dont have the luxury of taking the dash off and waiting for it to return. This is due to the Vision being my one and only transportation. I belive i will be purchasing another bridge cover to have it wrapped. I will be pricing them tomorrow at work. I think the alumnum panel can be had for around 80 to 85 dollars. Not a bad investment along with the luxury of having an added bridge cover to either paint of leave original or even have it wrapped with something different |
