"Rising Sun" third brake light

Still on the fence if i'm going to leave it or not.
What do you guys think?

 

looks sick! plan on making more?

 

With the proliferation of the "Made In Detroit" stickers around here, that would probably get me shot. Maybe a "Hecho In Mexico" sticker? I like the rising sun though- very subtle.

 

I grew in SE Michigan so I know where your coming from. I had a buddy and his dad had a Honda street bike, he would make sure not to park it near any Harleys. He worked at the Ford plant in Woodhaven.

 

Harley's spend too much time in the shop...it's always this or that. I'm out before i piss somebody off.

 

Please snap a pic of it lit up, that looks pretty neat

 

Easy tiger! That IS a rising sun, also known as Hitachi in Japanese. So you aren't wrong, neither is he.


Anyway, I think it looks good hawaiian! I've got the islands on mine


EDIT: I just noticed, you might want to go much darker with the tint spray. Black it out until light can't pass through at all or else it won't stand out as much when the brakes are applied at night.

 

I like it, different. X2 on the pics of it lit up at night.

 

LOL. Maybe I've been watching too many WWII TV shows, but isn't this as bad as, say, a swastika on a VW?

 

I would not put that on my truck. To me it's a political statement and reminds me of the flag of the imperial Japanese military.
You can relax, there is no need to argue with my opinion, just sharing my point of view.

 

good luck with that.

 

lol, luck is not necessary. I simply do not need to defend my opinion.

 

lol, you may not, but people will argue anyway.

 

Mind you, the truck is in Hawaii, where half the population is Japanese anyway.

 

Anyone who posts on a public forum is subject to criticism for their opinion, its just a given. Personally, I like what you did with the brake light, Nice Job !!

 

X2 - I like it! Something different.

 

pics at night, looks cool OP

 

Exactly. It isn't anything serious back home. They sell clothes that have designs resembling the rising sun

 

I like it!
