Oh wow! That is awesome! Now just about 20 minutes of your time and a heat gun, A wipe with some lighter fluid to get rid of any leftover adhesive, followed by a little wax and hand buff and Those stripes will be a distant memory. At least thats how I removed my flames...

Ya thats the easy part, the hard part is finding time.

Seriously though. Less than 5 minutes per side to remove the vinyl. i just wiped with lighter fluid and I didnt wax cuz my DSG paint barely showed any ghost at all. I'm sure it was garage kept by previous owner.

Here are a couple of pics of me with my 2007 Nightrain. They were at the 2008 105th anniversary parade. My wife won a parade package from our local Harley dealer and we got free museum passes and other cool shwag as well as getting to ride in the parade with 7,500 other Harleys. Talk about Rollin' Thunder! It was awesome. I gotta get some pics of my bike and truck together soon.

looks pretty cool! the powdercoating turned out great.

oh and the stripe removal, don't use lighter fluid, its for lighting fires, not removing adhesive lol. Use the least aggressive chemical when it comes to your paint. First try just washing the truck, then some isopropyl alcohol or goo-gone should make quick work of any adhesive, and is harmless for the paint.
