    New color on my VX

    Well I decided on Cosmos blue paint for something different.

    I'm digging it, would love to own a blue JDM one some day. Two side questions though: Where did you get the step platforms? And where did you get a flush mount Class II hitch? I don't know that I've ever seen one of those (the hitch) before.

    looks cool did you do the seats yourself? if not do you mind me asking how much you paid to have them recovered?

    I had the steps and hitch made. The seats cost a grand to have recovered. I had the upholstery shop retain all the VX logos on th seats, so he said it made it harder than just making all new covers.

    That looks great. I really dig the non-standard colors. I've painted mine back and forth from black to tan over the years and was just talking with the wife about maybe doing a bright color next time. I like my low-gloss black, but i think that is becoming trendy now. I need to figure what the next hot color will be so I can stay ahead of the trends.... I was thinking next time maybe orange.

    Nice Color.

    I've always wanted to paint my VX "grabber blue" and one of these days I'll go through with it... or maybe "electric green"

    Hey...

    Your pictures suck.

    ...but your VX is awesome. Do you have any more pics you can post. I am seriously thinking about painting my VX soon because my Victory White paint is starting to look like a loser (get it ). I'm just trying to decide what color and love the blue you chose. It would be great if you had some more wide angled shots of your VX. Just a humble request
