Please post pictures of the completed project. I want the Arlen Ness set up too. Just unsure of the set up.

You can't just throw that pattern randomly on the fork tubes without carrying it subtly to other areas of the bike. It will stand out like a sore thumb and look silly.

Did you even look at my bike? It's got the "Streamliner" theme throughout the bike. It's got the deep cut saddlebag latches. Tied in with the contrast cut Enforcers, how can you say that?

I got it from Hogpro. Jeff & Robert have a bunch of specials going on.

I think for my legs I'm liking this set up......smooth lowers with black contrast cut covers

Looks great! I can see by the components listed in your signature, you've made good choices. I really like that 2-1 from Fuel moto. If I ever change exhaust, I might go with that or the Rush Wrath. I like the Dragula 2's but he's raised his price by over $300, and he doesn't offer a ghost pipe.
As far as the forks go, I was torn between the chrome lower with smooth black sliders or the ones I chose. The guys at Eastern performance preferred what I chose, and I trust them. I only live 45 minutes away from them, so if and when I do decide on wheels, I'll probably go with them. They actually talked me out of your sliders. Said they were a PIA to clean, FYI.
