Default Cheap customized horn cover

I was never to crazy about the big chrome cowbell so I thought I'd try customizing it a little. Sprayed it with plasti dip and bent a harley emblem to fit on it. I think it looks pretty good.

I agree, I like it too. Got a pic of it a little further away?

Very nice! I want to cover my horn but it's on the front and I haven't seen any cover for it...not that I've looked that much.

Looks good, I like it. Been wanting a different horn cover but nothing has really grabbed me yet. This looks like a great option for low cost.

I got it off eBay. I was hoping it was metal so I could bend it. Well it was plastic. So I heated it put it in the vice and tapped on it with a rubber mallet. Bent real nice. I do have the bend very slightly off center but really can't tell.

There's a guy on here, though haven't seen anything from him for a while, who's got a grenade painted on his horn cover that like this idea looked good.
