Magnum braided cables are very nice. You can get discounted prices from PhatPerformanceParts.

Congrats on getting rid of your debt: it's a great feeling, eh!

Here's a couple pics with the lamps for inspiration.





Fwiw the 09 Brembo caliper, master cyl and floating rotors are a great improvement over stock. There's a few guys on Ebay selling chrome calipers, which would probably look better. The bike got different suspension, bagger brace and tires over winter, which has improved it's performance cosiderably. Let me know if you wanna go that route and are looking for feddback.

Good luck.

The bike is nice as it sits, if mine I would chrome the lowers, caliper, hand controls, and cables, stop there and just admire, coming from someone who can't leave anything alone, proof is in my sig photo of my vivid black RKC
