Custom Nomad Paint?
Been looking for Nomads with custom paint. It's actually hard to find them on the internet. If anyone has pictures please post them here. Been tossing the idea around of painting mine this winter. Flames, two toned, mural, stripes etc. I'm kind of partial to black. It's hard to beat.

Bobby, in my travels I don't think I have seen a Nomad with a custom paint job. Be nice to see some. Maybe someone will post some pictures for us to see.

Look at the pictures of Nightmare's "Glowmad" , it's in his signature picture. Or just be in Antlers on September 29th. It will grow on you.

here's a link to a custom painted Vaquero. Since you have a fairing, I'd say it could be similar.

The flames over the fire is pretty neat but I prefer the black over the orange flames. I tried practicing painting the real fire and it's harder to do than it looks. The candy colors are the key to it looking right.

There was a guy from SoCal at both Custer and Maggie Valley with a beautifully painted blue Nomad by the name of Tom. I don't have any photos of his bike, but maybe someone else does.

Custom Nomad Paint?
Been thinking about this also as the stock paint chips like hell. Will be awhile but I can always dream. I don't like flames on a Nomad, for one it's been done to death and second I associate flames with performance and lets face it the Nomad is no performance bike! I have a trick paint job on my Sportster that I'm think would look good on the Nomad even though it has flames. While the Sportster is Pearl White/Pearl Aqua [Stock Harley colors for my year] with purplish flames I think the same pattern would look good in my stock Nomad colors Red/Silver, not sure what color to do the flames but probably a light orangest color. Silver where the white is and red where the Aqua is on the Sportster. Attached is a pic of the Sportster. The Theme is a white racing stripe with pin stripe on each side on the fenders and then the white middle stripe on the tank replicates the racing stripe on the fenders.

Mine isn't anything special or a show topper but I went with a Harley Davidson gray on my blk. '06
The tour pak was the stock gray from Harley and when I dumped the bike last fall, I had the tank and fairing done as a two tone to go with the tour pak. I may still add some more to the fenders and maybe the hard bags one day. You can't see the difference in my photos. Hers one thats a bit better.
