Default Opinion on chrome shrouded shocks
'07 Lowrider in heavy stock chrome. Want to drop to 11" shocks (I'm real small) and some full chrome covered shocks are available. I can see exposed springs naturally on a Sportster and chrome covered on an FL dresser but would the chrome covered set off a chrome lowered Low Rider? I can find no pictures of such on Google, Bing or our Gallery here.

Any help, pictures or oninions?

Not a Low Rider, but a Wide Glide:



They are from Progressive.

They've always looked cheap to me.
