Have you been able to shoot any pics outside in natural light?
And, more importantly, it doesn't look like gloss to me, is it semi-gloss, mat, or flat?
Whatever it is, that is the look, I am looking for.

I bought leather from FJleather, on Ebay. It was about a year ago. They are from out east - probably digging out from many many inches of snow right now (come to think about it, they had a blizzard the week I bought my stuff..... )
I checked and they do not have any listings at this moment on Ebay - but this is the contact info I had
Sally O'Donnell
F & J Leather, Inc.
Cell #: 617-688-9091
The stuff I got was excellent quality, and at a great price.
If you don't get them immediately, check back later - I remember it's a father-daughter outfit, and if I recall one or both of them had some health issues at that time.
If that doesn't work--- search on Ebay for "horse" leather saddlebags -- I found a lot better selection for what I wanted that way - that's how I found F&J

I ordered a 3" mirror set at first, but I found the 3" looked a bit small for the bike. I ended up ordering a 4" set, which is what you see on the bike. I haven't been at highway speeds yet, so I have no idea if the mirrors have any vibration in them.Cool lookin' Drifter!
BTW, Tj, would you tell me where you did find those nice black mirrors? I'd like to go with them for ma-deuce, too.

This link seems to open fine. Look halfway down the page and the Drifter Gold Leaf or can order Silver Leaf.
Use your laptop or computer to see the full page. If I open it with my cellphone it shows only small areas of their website but using laptop can see full page.

- January 05, 2016, 15:47:07 PMThanks PC,
I sent a message using their contact email but it bounced back undeliverable.
I will check again in a few days.

You were saying that the website given was kind of screwy. I had trouble with it too. I did click on the logo in the top corner of the page and saw some pinstripe sets, but no war bonnets. Some of the other links work, and some don't. The "contact" link does work, so I suppose you could get ahold of a live person that way and go from there.
