    Damn, now this is a custom VN that's actually had the effort put in, and it bloody shows. Much better than a lot of other cars that claim to be custom...

    You've done an awesome job. Well done.

    thanks man. i initially wanted it a bit less deep, but once we worked out how the number plate lights would be set up so we could shave them off the rear bar thats what we went with.
