i hope you get it all together bud, your bike is an inspiration, and even if you dont win, I give you alot of "props" for posting all the pictures your took, along with the remarks to go with them, that in itlself takes time, and a "want" to help or atleast impress the community. Regardless of the outcome, your bike looks sick, dont go with the gold graphics, unless you tone them down a bit, maybe a sick ass skull graphic on the tank with some skull/flame residue on the tail. I know its probably too late to totally change your idea, but if the person your dealing with hasnt even cut your graphics, it shouldnt even be a problem. All it means is they are a lazy ass and didnt feel like using photoshop/corel draw/whatever else they use to make your graphics. Buddy of mine owns a graphics shop, both vinyl and screen printing, so I have an idea how it works
edit * even the green is alittle overboard for my taste, im a huge skull fan, but i also cherish simplicity, when you can join the two you have a awesome paint/graphics scheme.
