    If the sheethead I bought some parts from on ebay ever sends them, I may have one for you. I wasn't looking for the bucket, but it was with other parts I needed. cheap cheap

    You're going to grind and paint your girlfriend? I've never heard it referred to in that manner before...seriously, if the trade doesn't work out I will have a somewhat rust-pitted (but halfway nice actually) one from a Seca once I get unlazy enough to swap it for the spiffy one I got off eBay, if you want to stick to chrome instead.

    thanks guys..

    basically it doesent matter what shape its in as long as its round. im going to refinish it in flat black.

    does anyone know if the chrome ring and bulb are available anywhere to go into a bucket if thats all im able to find? wvninja offered his bucket up to me but i kind of wanted to find one with a bulb and ring. if they are available elsewhere as aftermarket parts, id be open to going that route.
