I wanted to use that Plastex stuff, but my buddy insisted on using a fiberglass mesh repair kit... it turned out perfect.  And it's still strong and flexible.

The cost for paint would bring me up short too...as compromises go your black looks  damn good.

When I get custom paint work done, see my KLR below, I always opt for a different colour. Everybody else will have stock colour, so its nice to stand out in the crowd!

I will be painting my Girly a nice sandstorm brown (desert tan).

I will purchase a few Triumph logos from a reputable decal dealer I know.

Evil; go for a complete respray to a colour of your choosing.  8)

Hehe, that's very cool, but with the Girly I'm afraid of damaging the resale value by tampering with the OEM color and decals.  I love the bolt on farkles on my bike but I have a hard time doing anything to a bike / car that is not reversable back to stock.  Although I love this bike I can see a time in the future that I might want to move to a 2007+ Roadie.

That and the Lucifer Orange has really grown on me!  :P

The hand guards are next on my list to install now that the fuel leak seems to be resolved!
