But $50 for the parts needed v's $400 for someone else to do it, decides itself really. All up it took about 8 hours. Had some dramas stripping the paint off the rear rim. Needed 4 paint stripper applications. I have got a small amount of satisfaction, knowing that I did it my self. I reakon it's the best mod yet. Really sexys the old girl up.
Before
After
Don't give up yet Tito, another 30 hrs on each rim will have the lot done ,Spokes & all, mine took me 40 hrs each . not much fun but .

I notice you have a grab handle on with the rear seat cowl, did you have to modify the hump to suit?
