I am picking up a '94 Turbo II in a few weeks.....and will be doing the paint thing with it. I ordered 14' of new rubber seal....and the painters I have talked to said the chrome trim is generic enough to source here. I am going with one color....most likely....maybe 2....but, to get the ghost flames matched ...don't think that's gonna happen. Seeing that transformation from not matching ....to.....matching .........Re-enforces my desire to paint it!

Thanks very much.
I was inquiring because I did not know whether Bushtec "glued" the fender to the body as well as bolt them.

On my Turbo +II the fenders are part of the body, as they are on the Roadstars.  They are molded into the fiberglass so are neither glued nor bolted on. My Turbo+II is from '07, though, so I don't know if they've changed things since then, but I don't think so.

Well I  took the fenders off as I thought.... They are not molded to the body but rather bolted on with some silicon on the inside. Mine is A 2006 so they may have changed the build process since then. I will forward the progress pictures and the final color match when it is complete. By the by my bike is the palladium silver and charcoal slate color limited.
