I thought I'd share my fresh paint with you guys, it's always fun to share...
Ok, I know it's not "correct", but in the spirit of Ducati, I'm liking it.
The blue is a little light, the bronze maybe a little dark, but I think I'll keep it for now, it's growing on me...

____ Seems like pin-striping is missing on the border between the two colors.
Are you going to add silver-striping, or what ?

Ok, here's today's updated photo ( the other one is from a couple weeks ago, the day after I painted it...)
I went with creme stripes.

Sorry, I didn't see your post until today. Those mirrors I picked up at bike week in Daytona FL last year, at the J&P superstore venders booth. The mirrors are Arlen Ness items. I think the blend well with the look of the Ducati.
