Default Fxbr + idle time = ???

This winter cold weather affords time for ideas. Sometimes good ones, sometimes not so much. Lol.
I'd like you guys opinion on this headlight "Sportster" style visor I mounted up. Yay, or NAY!??? LOL



Dont worry about hurting my feelings, very little $$$ spent, killed some time dabbing a mount from small scrap steel..

Black out(powder coat) the risers, visor, and tank cap Change out the amber turn signal lenses with CD bullet rings, or at the very least a smoke lens with CD's LED internal replacement signals..
I do hope you like input..

Cool! Factory that way, right? I thought about putting a regular, round 5.75" bucket under it with and led, but kinda growing on the looks with the factory led that came on the Breakout.
