Those look great! Couple of questions...(1) Is "Smoothie" a brand name that various vendors sell/paint? and (2) I've seen both solid and waffle like finishes (to match the tanks) for the fender covers. Both have been listed under "smoothie". Do you offer both options?

The term smoothie is mis-used by many vendors and is mis-leading at times to the customer. The smoothie piece should be completly smooth as the FRC's above. We do offer both styles and paint to match the finish of your exterior or custom paint to match your ideas.

Let me know what you have in mind and we can surely help you out.

Regards
