Default What should I do with these tins?

I bought this set of pearl white tins off Ebay and was going to have them painted. But when I received them, they were in near perfect condition so thought I would run them for a while. Has anyone added pin stripes or other color/effects to make it stand out a bit more?

My original color is school bus yellow and has a lot of chips and scratches and am planning to have those painted. I had some many jokes about my yellow bike that showing up with a white bike will be good for some comments.

I think they look good. Something different in a sea of black. I think gold pin stripe would look cool to match the gold already on the tank.

Personally, I like white. Maybe it's just me.

Seriously, everyone seems to have black these days. Those would stand out and they look great reguardless.

I'd run the white tins on your bike the way they are. Then after you get your other tins back from the painters, you can sell the white ones easily since they're still in original condition. You are going to customize your other tins, so keep the white ones stock for easy sale. (Just my recommendation)

After yer done running the white tins, I'd shelf them. If you ever plan to sell the bike, keep in mind that there are alot of people like myself who prefer factory paint, might help the resale $$

I was thinking of keeping my original yellow but the white ones are in much better shape. But both are factory originals so guess I can keep the white and paint the yellow.

I am in the Philippines, I have not seen many post 2006 Dynas around. We have a new dealership, but they didnt bring in any Dynas in the first batch, Only Sportys and baggers. So no market for my used tins.
