    Changed out the pumpkins for some new "smoke" lenses that I ordered from WingStuff. They really aren't that dark, but man do they look clean. I really like having no lens lines. They match the look of the headlights perfectly IMO.

    I am definately going to order the SoCalMotoGear amber LEDs to complete the look.

I pushed with my finger and finally a screwdriver, but I couldn't get the push pins to budge. So much for that idea. If anyone has any tips on removing tight pushpins, I'm all ears. The heads of the pins were several mm above the pin body, and I could not push the heads in to get them level with the pin body. If you don't remove the cowling, you won't be able to use a longer oil filter or a torque wrench on the drain bolt.
    Those are not the same kind of push-pins as are in the left cubby. You only need to pull the center pin part out a little. Then the whole fastener comes out.

    Thanks! I am really happy with the way it turned out. I had sent Neil an old school Batman logo and asked him to make replacement badges for the F6B and this is what he came up with. I was originally wanting a red background to match my super fast red F6B , but Neil said he didn't do colors although I'd be able to paint the badges if I wanted too. When the badges arrived I loved the look as is and just decided to install them the way they are. I think it's a great contrast with the red/black.
