Double thank you to you and Scirocco. Is that the same seat that Z-1 Enterprises sells? Their part number is PM151-1165.

Thank you sir! The seat is close to one hundred dollars cheaper through Z-1 and I need all the money help I can get.

Understood Scirocco. It's pretty much the same here, but varies a bit from state to state. Our tax laws are a spiderweb of loopholes and variables. Some states have an income tax and some do not. Many people retire and move to a state with no income tax and more favorable sales taxes. I should be so smart! If I order something from Germany and they will sell it to me, do I have to pay a VAT on it even though I don't live in Germany?

Finally got to paint it.
I used house of colors basecoat/clearcoat .
I used the same black as my vette and added prisum pearl and blue metallic To the clear .
It looks deep black and when the sun hits it it has every color metallic.
It's like my ducati and the Cadillac black dimond color but better.
I might add mat black stripes to the tank sides
