Default I just ordered the final piece so I'm done

I just ordered my Wards fans and can't think of anything else I want to change on my Street Glide. Here are my list of mods:

103 (from 96) stage 3
Woods cams, port & polished heads, PCV
Big Sucker & flamed 103 cover
D&D Fat Cat with ghost pipe
chromed stock wheels from Sport Chrome
12" Yaffe classic bagger apes
chrome switch housing and polished levers
steel braided clutch cable and brake lines
painted inner fairing
Harley 3 pocket windshield pouch
Hidden garage door opener
Sony bluetooth stereo with Sound Stream 520W amp
Sirius/XM module
Internal fairing antenna
Biketronics 7.1" Titan II front speakers
Hogtunes saddlebag speaker lids with Pioneer 6x9 rears
saddlebag liners and security kit
3.5mm headphone jack (for long rides to protect my ears)
C&C leather flamed 2up seat & passenger backrest pad
Both high and low detachable passenger backrests
smoked turn signals
LED tri-bar light with integrated brake light and turn signals
4 point docking
Progressive rear shocks
fairing mounted Ram mount X-grip for my phone
7" smoked Long Ride windshield
chrome windshield trim
chrome mirrors
Bluetooth OBDII adapter running Harleydroid

I might have forgotten a few thing but I have nothing else on my wish list and it's a really weird feeling to tell you the truth. I could always do chrome forks, chrome rotors and a smoothed front axle but those aren't important to me so I think I'll keep my money in my wallet. I know, I know, famous last words are, "I'm done."

Just curious, does your Sound Stream amp kill your radio signal?

Yes, chrome the forks (legs). You'll not regret it.
Nice color too!

Bike is never finished until the lowers are chromed.

I agree that there is such a thing as too much chrome, but as for the fork sliders, there is one important reason why I personally like them either chromed or painted...and that's because schmutz coming off the road wears thru the stock clear coat pretty quickly, and that gets to looking like hell mo' ricky tick! Not as much with chrome, paint, or powder coat, and you can repair any nicks, etc, with touchup paint if you go the power coat or paint route...

Thanks fellas. It started out as red hot sunglo and was repainted crimson red sunglo because the PO had the inner fairing painted and the painter used the wrong color. Instead of repainting the inner fairing the painter repainted the entire bike because the PO liked the crimson better. I have lost some reception on my am/fm tuner but don't use it so it's not a problem to me. Maybe I'll do the lowers some day but at this point it's not on my list.

Great looking ride...but done, I don't think so! Those are for sure, "Famous last words!"
