Next task will be to add the wiring harnesses.
Painted the tins. Duplicolor rattle can color coats topped with Spraymax 2K clear coat. Thanks to my wife, Pat for helping tape of the color seperations!

Dang, that looks nice!

Can't recall if it was discussed with your project that the bodywork needs to be mounted on the bike, then masked/market as level to the ground, THEN paint masked, then painted, or the stripes will not all align (with each other and/or the ground) when on the bike...
 
Yes I put the tins on the bike and used a level to get the lines parallel. You can't use the panel edges.
