Been thinking about this as well. Thought I would start small, tour pac and saddlebag latches and hinges in a silver snakeskin. Carbon fiber the crotch coolers. Really like the look of the carbon fiber on the vent. WIll hav eto think about that too.

Had a Horn bell dipped and changed my mind, Had to use a grinder with a wire brush to totally remove it.

Thanks for the pics. I like how you did a gloss black and carbon fiber look on the inner. I don't have the gloss so mine would be full on carbon fiber. This is my next project now.

What about vinyl wrap? Durable but easier to remove I think. I considered having it done to my hard bags just to protect them and keep the paint looking new. Have not looked into it though.
