Just bought a project bike, and am trying to figure out paint scheme. Satin/matte black is a definite, but not sure what I'm going to do with the frame, and how far to go in general. I've looked through heaps of streetfighter (this style of bike) pictures, but most are horrible overboard Euro things which make the tail on this thing look conservative. Alien looking headlights on almost every one of them... horrible. Anyway... photoshop to the rescue.

Looking at a couple of options with this pic.

1. Satin black frame, swingarm, undertray (the bottom silver bit under the engine) and wheels - delete little bar under the swingarm (torque arm for rear calliper if you care). Change forks to light gold (as they are on my bike, washed out light gold compared to the more bronze colour in this picture.

2. Satin black frame, swingarm, delete undertray, same deal with forks.

3. f**kit, do what you want - theme is similar to donor pic, tough, hard dark, cheap, simple.

Any help much appreciated guys.

    • This thread keps giving with the OMG!
    • A quick google, and some E39 users have found pulling my sensor out/apart and cleaning it alleviates their issue. Then get the oil warning to go off, and once it is off (from the sensor saying it was unhappy) some find they can just unplug it and it is happy to just keep going now. Maybe give it a crack? If you can actually pull the sensor apart, hit it with some electrical contact cleaner.
    • Yep. In the E39 it's slightly different than the others. Honestly I'd just leave it but every time I drive the car it tells me oil is low and that just makes me check the dipstick. It is a BMW Afterall and it tries to expel it's own oil regularly.  Thankfully it's not like my E90 that has no dipstick at all so you just gotta trust it. 
    • Was that also a typo? $350?! Just typing "BMW oil level sensor" and prices start out a lot more sanely than $350. I'm guessing it's a sensor used in one low volume model only or something?
    • They kept the product number the same, so we "didn't pick it up when packing your order". If you packed the order, you clearly saw the box wasn't Hella...
