Title: Painted tiger
Post by: tokalosh on September 26, 2012, 10:21:27 PM
Maybe I've missed the thread, so point me in the right direction if I'm blind....

I've had my blue '06 Girly for 6 years now, and I've often wondered if she would look better with an improved paint scheme.

My question is, anyone out there thought about it?  Seen any great paint jobs on a Girly?  Got pics of it?

I love some of the classic paint schemes of the Bonnevilles, but the crux is in the shape of the Tiger's tank.  Doesn't lend itself to something similar.  More likely a solid paint job, maybe a contrasting stripe down the middle of the tank...

Something to think about as the days get shorter and the Tiger sleeps in the garage  :sleepy1.

So please post your prettiest or ugliest Tiger paint jobs...!

Have a look through the galleries.  There's a nice blue on white Girly, a heavily farkled matt black Girly and then there's RF's red on white steamer just for starters :thumbsup

Isn't there a solid white one in the gallery somewhere? What about the one with the Tiger painted on the tank, I thought that was gorgeous, not sure it wasn't in a link somehwere though.

Crazy! Wow, that's quite the paint job... No mistaking what type of cat she is.

The white with blue logo is pretty nice too. 

Wonder what a Girly would look like with something akin to the Bonnie's white and orange-- the creamsicle one.

That Tiger's featured before I think.  Personally, I prefer this version:
